The crag looks quite cool too http://www.climbing.co.za/wiki/index.php?title=The_Underside

Remember looking up at it in about 1995 and discussing and contemplating potential. took 11 years for someone to get the drill out! Shows how much there is still to be climbed there.

I know it's plastic, but at least it's not indoors!

Not really chuffing, but one of the nicer approaches I have done.

Footprints in sand make for great shots, looks really nice there Chris.

Just look at Andi's right arm. Doesn't it look like he's matching? And then you realise his left arm is beside his body.

Working on the headwall cracks, Longhope Route, Hoy with the 7pm from Stromness ferry heading by far below.

Looks immense and with an 8c+ headwall on top of 18 pitches will be an immense effort  :o

Nice, shame about bottom corner - let me guess you got a non-climber to take the pic? Is that a knee brace or a knee barring pad?

I kind of like the bush, it frames it a little. It is a knee brace.  :(

I've got some photos like that of me on Riders on the Storm at Pembroke. Got my brother to take the pics and, as a non-climber, he wouldn't go near the edge of the zawn and had to sit down before he was happy to take pics.

Hope knee gets sorted.

Friend leading The Vice at Stanage last Saturday...





The aftermath...


The sadist is going back for a second round to get it cleanly as he had to rest and work out how to do the final section/top-out which was a real shame as he cruised it up to that point.

It is indeed Steve. I only got to know him recently, but as you say, nice guy.

He's not Jordanian is he? He reminds me of a guy I met when I was living in North Wales.

Not sure, doesn't sound it.

Will do, was supposed to be going to Pembroke this weekend, but can't make it away myself.
