Sit start to snatch went down on Friday in the hot, hot sun! Snatched is the original name!

Does this actually add any more moves to said one move problem, or just make the one move a bit harder? Specialist!

From what Scott told me it starts of an undercut underneath the roof and a ripple for your other hand, so it will add moves.

There wont be a video lads, come on - dont be daft. Scott's a vampire and doesnt appear in mirrors or on films.

8a+ on non existant grips on a south facing block in the sun? waddage! I presume noone either saw or filmed the ascent?

[monkey boy]

People were there i think so there are some witnesses out there. Come out, come out wherever you are!

Think this deserves it's own thread. Justed checked 8a.nu and the F.A was not Dave...........

I am flattered you think i could pull on those dirty holds!!

Thats awesome news! it would be really nice for Scott (and us all) if just one person stood up and said they saw with their own eyes him being as good as he is reported to be. Credit where credit's due and all that.

I saw him climb a slopey 8a in the sun in Albarracin. Was quite impressive. He did a bunch of other hard things whilst we were there, and did ask me to come and try them with him, but I was too excited by all the new rock to siege anything, so he went off on his own and did them. I saw him working stuff occasionally, and he's certainly very strong. Very good at snatching for poor holds.

Hooray! nice one r-man, I like what you did with your finishing sentence...

Aye that is good news!! Snatching is certainly what looks to be required on snatch (no shit) and hooligan and even the ace i suppose!

my core gets a continual workout reading of these exploits. had a look at this problem today and looks quite do-able at around the grade. it was about 5 degrees cooler than friday so no chance of doing it today

Maybe monkey boy posted in the wrong thread.

Ah that's all sorted then, fine.

Whats going on here, I've been informed that this is one of the best new things to go up in the peak for a while and now its turned into a conversation about a possibly fictional ascent of a even lower start to a crap lowball problem
