I don't include the weight of the bar - not sure what the etiquette is with this

What? Tops off and shorts? It was baltic here today! I had full thermals!
Did my first ever 6C+ on real rock on Saturday and according to my mate's samizdat topo my second on Sunday. Although the second one was heavily reach dependent, and being a lanky sod I couldn't really justify take the grade for it.

Shark I've never been to eatswood so don't know what the holds are like but you seem to shake out twice for quite a while in what looks like 10 ft of climbing? Do you need to do this for so long? Could be draining you slowly. Apart from that you look good on it!

Apart from that you look good on it!You might be right but the knee bar is pretty good and I think I'm pretty good at milking rests and judging what length of recovery I need. Earlier attempts yesterday I wasnt recovering as well so just chalked and went. Whilst it would be nice to get the tick my main reason for being there is training for the Oak.When I do the Reverse Im only going to start working on heading back again with a view to working this mythical aeropower (ie 2-3 mins of hard climbing) which came up as a relatively weak point on Tom's Lattice assessment. Also shaking at poor rests is useful on the Oak.
