I don't know about anyone else, but it's pretty interesting to see the different styles there. Nalle as total basic, Klem as momentum king, and Rok with what looks like perfection of beta and finesse.

However none of them vids have mickys mum holding and moving the ladder while his dad takes pics. Upon seeing bugeleisen in all it's glory his dad said "is that it? You can have a go then we're going"

I do await Dense's updates on Mickey's goings on with bated breath.

I thought it was quite a good aside since we're on a bouldering forum. Should have known better really. I await news of the next decent app for catching flies in soup, or the like

 :agree:

even though I don't know who Micky is. Somebody who boulders better than me I assume, not that that narrows the field much.

Some mates of mine are going to Maltatal next month. Might ask if they have room in the car for me and a ladder.

Jimmy Webb did The Understanding IN A DAY, and hasn't downgraded it from 8C.  He's saying on Instagram it's the best line he's ever climbed.

Is that one of Mickys problems??

Made the 3rd ascent of Belly of the Beast, 8B+/V14 today! I don't think I've ever fought and tried so hard on a climb before! Real big thanks to everyone there for all the support and encouragement.
Feeling in the best shape of my life right now, super motivated for whatever is next!

Nice one Ethan

Taking Dense out of Mick may prove trickier...

Just seen on twitter that Neil '5c' Mawson has smashed out Parthian. Hero! Nice one Neil.

Hottest day of the year too. Good effort Neil, slightly relieved I wasn't needed to belay - was worried May hanging out at the bottom might cause a distraction/not to keen on her witnessing carnage!
