It included the photo of him stood under the Burbage prow with the rope hanging down it. As proof.

Actually maybe I'll make a "kneebarring only" bit, sort of like the wideboys crack trainer, only meant for kneebars.....

I'd add "NO HEEL HOOKING EITHER" to that sign. And maybe "WHAT WOULD MALC DO?".

Think I've just broken the record for the most missed (admittedly crap) gags on one thread. I'd post the tumbleweed but I'm on tapatalk.

I use the phrase 'Malcolm Style' all the time.

Its from the pro tips video; staying open, face on, no rolling or twisting and certainly no advanced frottage.

Always worth a re-up

It's a generation thing jasper and maybe tied to about 20 people who climbed in your celler.
I can still see many of the hold names in my head.
" Mank wank skank bank" rings a bell as one of the few non libellous  ones

Ha ha! "Hank Wank Mank Bank" if I remember correctly but had to dredge that from the depths. Genius.

You're correct, but I did think people would get that the Dunne shrine was ironic.....

Warning! Thread hijack!

What's the general opinion of the UKB massive of the Cafe Kraft "peg" training board (as featured here )?

And....

Crack training, any preferred widths?

I'm thinking of two, 2~3cm and 10~12 cm, sound right?

Worth putting in a bigger one?

Would you use artificial cracks, if they were there?

Not just Cafe Kraft, they're pretty standard at German walls.

That facility generally looks amazing.

Nice and light.

Or is that something to do with the fact that I have to work and only train after 8pm.
