SU:- Buthiers Canard: Fun Highballing on blue problems.
If it was Shark who put that 7b+ up at High Tor It'll do Jordon some good to be challenged from time to time.
I've thought about quitting Power Club 'til then a few times recently but I think I'll keep on posting as it makes me think of my performance (or lack of it) on a weekly basis. I wouldn't want to deprive the world of navel-gazing soliloquies like this either.

climbed up to the cave to belay my mate on some 7b+. Usually he'd be thinking onsight but he got nowhere fast. "Sandbag" was his conclusion. FA by Simon Lee it would seem...
Assuming you're talking about pump out the squealies, I had a similar experience a couple of years ago. Maybe something has come off?
Its had a few repeats and no one has suggested an upgrade. Hope nothing crucial has come off the crux starting moves. I did glue a key hold that was suspect at the time. Tell him there was only a single small RP (Chouinard 1) in the top groove when I did a trad version originally.

Tell him there was only a single small RP (Chouinard 1) in the top groove when I did a trad version originally.Just spoke to him and the glued on hold is still there. He's been working something in the 8s at Rubicon lately and felt this was way harder.He found the top fairly easy, it was just the bottom crux that bamboozled him a bit. Fair play on a trad lead of that Shark!
I'm not a coach but I reckon an onsight attempt at one of the harder routes at Black Rocks (maybe T_B's "Devil in the Details"- has much better gear than an RP1) would be great in my film just what your psyche needs.
