Chris Bevins (who he?) made the first British solo NIAD ascent.  :bow:



Grrr....  I had to google "NAID" when I read that on UKC and almost forgot it again here. Is it really so hard to spell it out? Nose-In-A-Day! 

Sorry,  :off:  Great effort though. Pretty psyched to go and be very slow, very British and very bumbly there in September  :great:

So if NAID means Nose In A Day, what NIAD means?

Youngest Female 8a in UK - Big congratulations to Emily Allen who has climbed Aberration at Two Tier Buttress in Cheedale this evening. At 13 years old this makes her the youngest girl to red point 8a in the UK.

Tara Hayes managed an 8a indoors at 13, she was 16 a couple of weeks back. The kids get stronger and stronger...

If you want to get strong - break a leg! Quite a comeback!

in case you don't have the encyclopedic knowledge off all bouldering that some on here seem to have.
