Bass For Your Face has a new video up, and, as you have probably come to expect from them, it’s pretty hilarious. This new video seems to be a response to 2011, which the guys from Bass For Your Face dubbed the year of the fail. Its good to see the crew is back on their feet after an unfortunate year in 2011. As always, a new year brings new promise, and this year Bass For Your Face has vowed to be more productive, meaning more videos for our viewing pleasure. Hopefully, we’ll get a lot more videos from these guys because the’re always fun to watch.

This winter’s unseasonable warmth has been considered a curse by many here in the Northeast, but in other regions its been received much better. Tour Of Classics- The High Country is a perfect example of people getting out and taking advantage of the warm weather. Shot in Western North Carolina from late 2011 to early 2012, The High Country really just makes you want to get out there and find some boulders as soon as possible. The climbers in the video get to see some awesome rock, and take on some seriously tough looking problems.
