Very nearly beat the champ up it too, very smooth. Not got pics off camera yet...

Only four of us Will, and no, we didn't.

Not significant that this problem (The Aquarium, V12 @ Bishop) has been repeated, but significant because it's a 10 year old doing the repeating.

I believe the Haston Dyno was the World's first 8C. However it has to be done correctly or it's 6C+.

Michele Caminati did Careless Torque yesterday, on his birthday!!!

Did Michele have a look at this on a previous trip? I sounds like quite a quick send, strong effort!

Luckily I figured out the starting move... last year I'd tried it loads but never even managed to get started

Report also states he fell from the top four times before topping out.  :bow:

The rules: 1000 pullups on the top jug, with your mouth full of sour grapes.
