Really. Its a sweet line also sway on is brilliant. I also did queens at Pac mans, do you know how many ascents that's had. About 5 is what I've been told. Cheers for the fast replies doylo

CJD will be pleased. Ye Queens has had 5 or so. Did you think 8a or 8a+ for that?

I don't really know. Havnt done enough at that level. Queens really suited me so I dunno. What has the other repeaters said about grade? I think sway on is tough for the grade as it took me longer than this parade!!!

Not sure to be honest. CJD and Nodder think 8a+ though

Sorry I couldn't make yesterday.  Alex told me that you did The Parade (V12), Queens (V12), Sway On (V11), Spoon Machine (V10) and flashed Diamond Eyes (V9).  Sounds like you had an awesome day!  Give me a shout and we'll sort out the light for Dinas tomorrow.  Great work Fyfe!

Nice one!  It's about time someone got that - its a cool line, and not been there for a while. 

I reckon Queens feels harder than Sway on to me, but saying that, I got the move faster. Gaskins thought Sway On was hard 8a.

Spoon machine is a weird one - sometimes it feels okay, sometimes it feels nails.  Who knows.  Anyhow, sounds like a great weekend - good effort!
