Jimmy Webb (climber)
Jimmy Webb is a professional rock climber specializing in bouldering. He is one of a handful of climbers who have climbed the boulder grade V15 (8C). Webb was the men's winner of the 2013 Psicobloc Masters Series held in Park City, UT. He beat out several of the world's best climbers to win the event, including: Chris Sharma, Daniel Woods, Dave Graham, Tommy Caldwell, and Carlo Traversi. In spring 2014, Webb climbed The Understanding and Practice of the Wild, both V15, within a week of each other. In November 2014, he repeated Defying Gravity which was originally climbed by Daniel Woods a year before.
Webb has climbed the boulder the first time trying, or flashed, six V13 or harder boulder problems. Dead Point Magazine says "it’s not a stretch to consider Jimmy the world’s best flash boulderer."
Webb is the premier athlete supported by Southern California based surf & stone apparel brand HippyTree.

El Mirage
There's a decade in an hour
Your whole life's in a single day
And you're reaching for the moments
As the seconds slip away
And I see you at a party
But I'm closer to the stars
And I'm closer to the teacups
Where the universes are
Where the universes are
Where the universes are
And I stumble to my car
Sweet Lord, I'm off to find another bar
I'm off to find another bar
And I'll miss you in the island
And I'll miss you at the fair
And I'll miss a lot of places
'Cause my love, you won't be there
And I don't know where I'm goin'
But I know I'm goin' far
If I see you out there someday, baby
Where the universes are
Where the universes are
Where the universes are
And I stumble to my car
Sweet Lord, I'm off to find another bar
I'm off to find another bar
