Core DVD now in

We've been getting badgered for a while about when Core DVD would be here. It's been out for a while on this BluRay nonsense but is now finally here on proper DVD.
Featuring Nalle Hukkataival, Matt Wilder, Fred Nicole, Kevin Jorgeson and more it promises to be quite a crushfest.

And for those inspired By Fred to get out there and pull on some swiss boulders - we have just taken delivery of the new SwissBloc vol1. Covering Magic Wood, Sustenpass and much more. This is the first of two volumes by Gebro Verlag (Publishers of EBloc, IBloc and BlocHeart, which SwissBloc replaces).
