The Hatchlink 8B+. The good old cave. Having fallen off the same move of one project a few times in the last week or so I decided to change direction today and try to finally put this one to bed. The climb links Hatchatrocity into Halfway house and ultimately Trigger Cut and is the first breach right through the centre of the cave from a sit.
A linkup, in Parisella's? Sounds novel.
showing my ignorance of the place, but I thought the obvious links would have been climbed already! Must be 'ard as nails

The best back to front links are all at least 8B+ and haven’t been done and are the best things in there. Finishing up Bonnie, Clyde or Trigger from the sitters at the back are all awesome. Hatch/Bonnie is prob the best line of them undone. Very straight line through from the back. No real rest and a high finish. Mike Harts, Loucifer Into Megos’-Louis Cut would be 8C and the hardest (not quite as good a line tho).
Cheers Shark and everyone else. Really happy with this one. Both the raging and the celebration have been edited. Partly because pretty unsavoury words were used in both, my lad watches them and he already knows too many words which he probably shouldn't, but also because I went over the top in both. I edited out me launching my brush stick baseball swing style into left wall as I didn't feel that was good behaviour and regretted it afterwards. In my defence I've been spending too much time with Vickers and some fucking tourist asked me what I was up to a few moves before the end on my first go on the day, I then dropped it a few moves later, literally touching the last hold. Still no excuses, respect the rock even if it's polished and drilled choss. Anyway, I've got a faulty brush stick to return and more 'novel' link ups to do.
Three cheers for novel link-ups!!
Finishing up Upper cut from this would surely be the obvious thing to top so it tops out as well?
