Statement of Youth?

cofe · June 09, 2015, 12:06:25 pm

My guess is he's off to Kilnsey…

Doylo · June 09, 2015, 12:15:42 pm

If Moony does Northern Lights I think I'll die.

Is it the 90's?!

So psyched for Moon! That's seriously inspired me more than anything else in ages!

I'm off to buy some leggings.

Nibile · June 09, 2015, 01:56:58 pm

When Moony will do Northern Lights finally the climbing world will regain meaning for me.

Pako · June 09, 2015, 02:25:16 pm

He might as well repeat Violent New Breed while he's at it.

dave · June 09, 2015, 02:32:30 pm

If he does NL he must bleach his hair.

In his own words

mrjonathanr · June 09, 2015, 02:52:29 pm

Very Zen.

That's just awesome.

Monolith · June 09, 2015, 03:16:00 pm

The most inspirational ascent of all time for me. Best of all, it's making me feel ok about taking 6 months off.

galpinos · June 09, 2015, 03:28:48 pm

I'm no longer a child but my childhood hero is still crushing. Awesome.

Nigel · June 09, 2015, 04:45:22 pm

Incredible. If you grew up with Ben and Jerry being the tops dogs this is like falling asleep at Glastonbury watching U2 and waking up at Woodstock with Hendrix on stage. And to think I was always told never to have heroes cos they'll always let you down. Not this time!

Fiend · June 09, 2015, 05:25:45 pm

Great stuff, love his write-up about the send day, napping in the sun

bigtuboflard · June 09, 2015, 05:56:27 pm

Best climbing news I've heard in a very long time. Can't put in to words how much respect I have for his ascent. Remember bumping in to Ben at Malham when I was 16 or 17 and being in awe. Guess I still am.

yes, let's move this hagiography elsewhere

Muenchener · June 10, 2015, 10:10:39 am

The thread will look a bit silly if we need to wait another quarter of a century for him to do something noteworthy again

Bonjoy · June 10, 2015, 12:32:34 pm

Totally amazing news. Can't wait to see the film. I do hope Pritch has gone with Cat Stevens' Moon Shadow as the soundtrack.
