What it's all about ::
The Rhode Island Rock Gym is proud to host the Kickin Access Tour, now entering its third year. During these three years, the Tour has generated $70,000 for the Access Fund and has signed up over 2000 members. The tour is a full-on climbing party benefiting the Access Fund, complete with the video premiere of Friction Addiction - Black Hills Gold, live DJ music by Kurt Smith, contests, and raffle prizes.
Friction Addiction brings you an amazing summer of daring runouts and highball first ascents from the sharp end of South Dakota's Black Hills. Filmed entirely in crystal-clear digital, and set to an original soundtrack by Underground Chuck, this film raises the bar of the climbing movie genre to dangerous new heights.
John Gill provides historical insights into the cradle of American bouldering, and John "The Verm" Sherman and a host of Dakota and Colorado locals check their mettle against the crystaline South Dakota granite.
So come on down and join the party, enjoy the show, and win some cool gear donated by the sponsors. But most importantly, come out and help keep your climbing areas open by supporting and joining the Access Fund.
