A low start may have been added? But the original which Ryan does in Doyle's vid has always been 8a+

Martin Smith has just repeated Curious Yellow RH at Ilkley, I think it's over ten years since Buchanan got the FA, and this is the first repeat!

Nice one Shaggy!

I think originally it was a low start but something broke and some people started claiming it from the undercut. I think...

16 year old Ticino local Guiliano Cameroni has apparently done Story of Two Worlds.

Everyone seems to have a different sequence for the dagger, good wet slab topout too!

And I thought Marratime looked beta intensive.

Closer to the original Dave Graham beta than any of the other repeats I think?

cant remember dave's beta for the first 2/3's but he does't mantle onto the slab, instead he traverses to the top of the wall to the right

Story of 2 Worlds is a right bloody mess. Those tick marks look pretty permanent.

No?  Didn't look like Dave's extra traversing makes any real difference but most others lead with their feet at some point during the dagger bit, if memory serves.  And no-one seems to think Dai's extra move is worth bothering with.

Seemed like a pretty normal sitter to me. As far as jugless sitters go. The slab top-out was funny.

Every time I think that there is more to hard rock climbing than being tall and thin, another generation of tall and thin people arrive to take it to the next level.

Jacopo Larcher has repeated Prinzip Hoffnung in Austria, Beat Kammerlander's gnarly looking E9/10/8b/+ slab

Good stuff. Some our lads need to get over and try this. One for Keen Youth to try to flash? Or Dave Mac to thoroughly headpoint and then downgrade to E8?

Nice. Wonder what's the Italian word for sticky damp?

Oh my.  Effort.  So presumably he's currently having a nightmare internal grade debate.
