Exploring the theme of Landing, this third issue questions how we connect with, steady ourselves in and impact upon the land in which we climb.

Whilst climbing - and bouldering in particular - is concerned with the motivation for ascent, an inordinate amount of time is spent falling off. Climbers are, in fact, much more familiar with the act of landing than they are topping out. Yet sometimes it's easy to forget the ground is even there. This issue asks what we might uncover about the bouldering experience if we turn our attention to the practice of Landing.
