New name in the frame I think?

He has particularly nice and floaty movement. Like I'd imagine moving if I woke up 50% lighter one day.

Superpong Me 8B
Ha ha indeed,  I wish I knew I could just miss out the start when I was trying it.

Huh, yeah that doesn't sound legit  :-\

Shame about the dab on that chalk bag his mate is holding  ;)
So close to the end too, he must have been gutted...

Hah that's a good pick up and thanks for calling me out on the lighter is better thing.

I meant more in relation to suddenly defying gravity for a brief moment. Waking up on the moon might be a better analogy.

Except that big but strong people rarely look floaty, it's the waifs that do

I would have said the opposite. It’s the big strong people that look floaty.

Waddage! Am I right in thinking that's his first of the grade?

Andy Hutchinson did Mr Lambtastic (8B at griffs) today. His first of the grade, really good scenes at the crag.

Great knowledge as per Jack, and congrats to Andy! Big news getting on the list  ;)

Out of interest, where does Mr. Lambtastic go? Looks like it's written up on peakbouldering.info but the site is down.

It climbs Rich’s traverse into bovine, so a big left to right traverse finishing with some sapping moves up to the top of bovine. Proper power endurance test piece, probably less than a minutes climbing but not one easy move on it.

Rhys Langlands climbed Zero at the weekend. What a champ. It's getting more repeats than all of Dave's Nevis cave lines combined!

Was about to say Leo skinner has bouldered 8B+ with Louis High Society at Bacon Hole but you've beaten me to it!

Adam Smith has done the vault and combination at carnage wall both 8B

If the Rail and Bombadil are going to be upgraded for Dan V then surely so does Crescendo, and if that goes up then Flipnic maybe starts to make more sense at 8B+?

On the list remus has made the other 2 have been changed to 8C without a repeat... I would guess bombadil hasnt been tried, the rail. Idk but I'd imagine crescendo has had a few attempts over the years?
