Troy Fauteux tries harder than you. His try hard might have gotten him up hard boulders before the mental skills had a chance to catch up - but I suspect those are coming along just fine.

To make the most of this interview go HERE and watch the video of Troy doing The Mandala in Bishop. THEN listen to the episode.

Once you're finished, go HERE and watch this video of Troy just two weeks before doing his first V11. Turn up your volume and enjoy.

We don't tweet. We scream like eagles.
