Had a phone call last night from Dyer asking how far apart campus rungs were supposed to be, guessing it was for this place. 33cm thats right isnt it?

I thought the 'standard' was 200mm or 220mm.

20cm rings a bell

Quote from the Moon website: "An ideal campus board will have a few different sized rungs, spaced at around 22cm apart with up to 9 numbered rungs going upwards." I'm not sure if that is that actual gap between the finger surface and the base of the next rung or finger surface to finger surface. The most important thing is the angle as some walls (probably due to space restrictions) put up campus boards that are not steep enough and you end up dragging various body parts up them. I would say the one at Awesome Walls (Liverpool) is spot on apart from the fact the side with the smallest rungs is flush with the wall.

I believe as well the angle sweet spot is between 14-16 deg. Ditto the awesome board is superb.

Cheers. I might even have a chance on some of the comp routes...

I sense more hustling going down!

Cheers. I might ~~even have a chance on some~~ easily crush the comp routes...

To be honest the comp routes are well crushable. Most are V2-3 and only a couple harder than V4. They are on the whole excellent though, with a quality run and jump problem amongst them.

And I cannot believe that Andy tried to accuse someone else of hustling... You are the hustler's hustler.
