Smallest video EVER - someone vimeo that shit yo!

All about the hesitancy, love it.

Amazingly steady hand from Sam considering!

[Houdini]

Hasn't this gone down to E7.  And a mat?   Curious.

[AndiT]

Someone point him at Rays Roof. Flash? What about that crack project at Ramshaw, is it really a full on crack?

We've always said that Ray's Roof would be a highball to an American crack specialist, I reckon that our thoughts could become a reality!

I don't think the Ramshaw crack project isn't really about jamming at all, it's more fridge hugging grimness, your fingers don't go deep enough into the crack really.

Kevin Jorgeson in the UK 
We just got word that Kevin Jorgeson was attempting Gaia E8 in the UK when he fell from the top and decked! Pete Ward was chatting with Kevin this morning and filled us in on the news. Kevin took a huge fall from the top of Gaia and landed on a small bouldering pad.  Luckily, he was able to walk away from it! Pissed that he fell from the top of Gaia, Kevin walked around the corner looking for redemption. What he found was Meshuga, a slopy E9 made famous by the cover of Hard Grit. Kevin quickly soloed Meshuga without any pads! He had previously been on the route, but had not yet linked it. More info coming as we know more...

 

[Paul B]

its been ammended a bit now, He finished of Gaia then did Meshuga and he had done it on a TR cleanly.

[DaveC]

Apparently Alex Honnold has also soloed Meshuga! Can't decide whether  or  is more appropriate so I'll give it both.

[chillax]

The bottom picture in the momentum report is both hilarious and disturbing in equal measure 

[danm]

I was working over at Black Rocks today, and saw some dude soloing Gaia. I don't know who it was, (didn't stick around as I was busy chav-minding) but heard an American accent. Waddage!

[Caesar Power]

eek!

[SA Chris]

Is the direct finish unrepeated? Has anyone told them there is one?

[dave]

there was a rumour that the black-country's answer to herold bomber graham had done it, but since it was unreported it may as well not have happened, if it did. or not.

[Scouse D]

Herold Bomber Graham works in Virgin Gym in Sheffield. His Enthusiasm can be rather grating.

[grimer]

Didn't Toby Benham do this? Bet that doesn't get downgraded.

[Johnny Brown]

Honnold did it on a top-rope without too much drama.

[SA Chris]

Should be as easy to do above a stack of pads then

[Somebody's Fool]

More ethical, yes. Easier, no.

[a dense loner]

toby did it on xmas day

[ferret]

Honnold did it on a top-rope without too much drama

i thought like a lot of grit routes it isnt that hard on a top rope just death or paralysation if u fall off the top.

[neil h]

see thats a point, all these americans crushing, what about toby, no one hardly mentioned him when he was a round, crushed everything in sight, mainly soloing, cause no one would hold his rope due to the fact he was a nutter.

[Carnage]

He apparently joined  the circus didn't he?

[Krank]

no one would hold his rope due to the fact he was a nutter.

I think it was in committed where he said that taking a rope up was almost doubting his own ability, crazy fella.

last i heard he was in spain taking his parachuting instructors course, bless him
