Onyx, Blackburn

I haven't found it tweaky, the wave is a decent comparison.
I've never been back to the climbing station at Loughborough after I tweaked a finger on their shit setting at the start of 2020 😂

I've been a couple of times and really enjoyed the old-school vibe and the setting. Lots of crimping and less of the running - jumping, volume wrestling that's now prevalent. I found the problems interesting with good moves, yet also satisfyingly basic - forearms and fingers felt worked afterwards - like after a brutal limestone session.

Could there be a higher praise?

Hadn't hard about it either. Sounds great. I love the Boulder UK wall in Preston too, for similar reasons. Maybe not quite so 'old school' (need to visit Onyx to know) but I really like the route setting, and the vibe is so much more relaxed than other (previously mentioned) Manchester walls.
Andy - just live down the road in Chorley if you are around the area at the moment?

Yep, a decent wall, great asset to the Lancs/N Manc area. Good setting from Ian as is to be expected and it's also nice to see both Gill and Ian at the helm of a wall again. Some varied problems, I've really enjoyed when I've been👍
