I would think it would be pretty easy for a moth.

12 routes - circa 10-15m per route. Lot of crawling for a small creature. Flying invalidates ascents.

Jorg Verhoeven has repeated Dihedral Wall, according to Adam Ondra. This is the most sustained and probably hardest of Tommy Caldwell's pre Dawn Wall routes with 10 pitches of 8a-8b+.

The madness continues. Charles Albert has repeated “Satan i Helvete” after breakage. This was previously done by Alban Levier who suggested 8C. Mr Albert suggest 8B is still OK. Needless to say he did it without shoes and if I am to believe the guy that holds the camera in this

he did it in a single session

Dont think its been mentioned on here but James Noble repeated Perky Pinky at the Schoolroom.

This was Malc's mega hard problem (which apparently he did with a weight belt?) and Megos got the second ascent (when the board was steeper than it should have been?)

Doylo filmed Simpson doing it in sections. No film of James (but says he has witnesses in case anyone is wondering).

I think when Megos did it the board was at the right angle. His first visit was when it was too steep, when he flashed Stueys.

Quiet beast. Remember him turning up at the diamond two summers ago and crushing the brute in a couple of sessions. Good progression!

I think he'd climbed 8c+ then though hadn't he.
