pre-marital tension, cribba head
February 26, 2009, 01:13:41 pm
what an ace looking line!
i'm thinking about putting a shunt on it next chance i get,
has anybody done or tried it? (got any beta?)
Heard it's difficult to set the top rope up on (and i can see why) has anyone got experience of doing this and how did you find the best way of doing it to be?
Thanks for any help!
Andy

Thought this was going to be a thread of stressed pre-nuptials comparing wedding lists. Phew.

Had a brief play on it in summer '01. As I recall, it's pretty straightforward climbing to an obvious boss followed by a few tricky moves, pinching with your right, crimps with your left. Then there's some gear. It was was a bit of a scorcher that day, but it felt about V8 with the crux maybe 7m up. The skyhook protection mentioned in the guide isn't going to help much.

Don't remember any problems setting up a top rope.

A good line indeed.
