Don't worry, I'd never claim to have done a hard move. I think I got to one once, but didn't like the look of it so just reached the next jug instead

His ash hole peoblems got a heavy down grade from 8A+ to 7B+ and 8A to 7B

I was at the tor and explained to him the rules on bens extension to get v11 no knee bar and right hand exit. I watch him climb with knee bars and left exit. Few days later he's  logged it as 8A/8b+ after i specifically told him that if he wants that grade its a eliminate. He made it to front page news of ukc with that ascent..

Basically was really not impressed that he took the 8A after i explained to him the rules. However whether this means his claims else where are bullshit i don't  know. I was looking to see if anyone else had done the stand version and couldn't  find anyone. Sounds like a bit of an excuss to log a non problem and keep the sponsers happy.

The sad thing is that he knows everything he is doing wrong... but simply doesn't care one bit.

Nice one Dan!

In other news, whilst I hate to spoil the fun of rumours, intrigue and controversy, there is a witness for some of Ellis's hard stuff, including Fatman.

And who could it be? The naked rambler? King Lear?

Seriously though, if he's done fatman then that's amazing, and big news. Hope he releases the footage he's said he got of it/gives some info on how he did it, seeing as I was certain the holds on it had been obliterated. Must be pretty hard.
