REWIND | Ravioli Biceps on Moonboarding, Process, and Identity

Written By Kris Hampton
 

Five years ago this week, Ravioli Biceps walked into the gym, did his usual detailed warmup, and then set his camera up pointed at the Moonboard. It had only been a year since he’d started climbing on it, and he’d obsessively worked his way through the benchmarks. And on this day, he pulled on and finished the final benchmark of the 2016 set, becoming the first person to do so.

This kind of dedication is rare, and deserves to be recognized. So now, five years since becoming the undisputed king of the Moonboard, we REWIND to this conversation about process, identity, and using a tool to its absolute fullest with Ravioli Biceps.
