EP17: Owen May & Jay-T | G-Wood Crew

from The Hangout Australian Climbing Podcast · host The Hangout

This week I am Hanging with Owen May & Jay-T from the G-wood Crew.G-wood was created over 20 years ago by the psyched Jay-T and his South Australia climbing mates. With no commercial gyms around they took it into their own hands to build a home wall in Goodwood SA. The now staple in the Adelaide scene Gwood has created an environment of show up, try hard and support that process.
