Enjoyed the new lakes vid from Wedge:

Some commendable dab ethics and pad shuffling.

[Duma]

Also the latest mellow thing from Gottardo looks stunning, nice to see a few different faces.

I also really liked this lakes film. Really nice to see a good spread of areas and problems. The weather looked typical too!

[tomtom]

A lovely warming three minutes.

Dude’s a poet. Thanks tt.

[scragrock]

Excellent, just Excellent

I want Chris Schulte to read me bedtime stories.

Shame that vid is so short, like to see more of what he did.

New boulder in North Wales from Ducko. Surely one of the best single boulders about. After years looking he finally hit gold...

Watched this last night, looks well good. Seen lots of mentions of the new guide, any idea when it's due out? Only seems like yesterday I was buying the last one.

No joke, I have the "Jam Crack" ep where he reads "The View From Dead Horse Point" on my phone for that purpose, because his voice is so calming -- it's helped me wind down from insomniac anxiety a few times.

I had that piece in mind when i wrote it. He should take over from James Earl Jones doing movie trailer voiceovers.

Another new NWB guide? A reprint or one with new material?

[RobK]

A new one apparently, in two volumes I heard.

From the (very vague) rumours I've heard it's going to be split in to a couple of volumes. Something like mountain stuff and coastal stuff, so presumably a good chunk of new material.

[ducko]

Two parts is correct, costal and mountains.
Loads of new stuff to get at too

[Doylo]

Reprint as sold out but with plenty of new stuff. Mountain volume coming first then coastal next year.

Si must be cursing ducko and thanking him at the same time. Looks like a mint bit of rock.

He’s been waiting on him doing his hard proj on it. Defo wanted the boulder in.

I swear Simon promised his family he wouldn't take on another project like NWB in the acknowledgements of the last edition  now he's committed to two volumes! Poor sod. Sounds like a great idea though and a natural solution.

He didn’t think it would be that bad as only a reprint but 400 odd new problems later ...

Everyones got until Friday to tick the bloc....

Not sure if this is a re-post but here's some more amazing looking Bomber Buckley Business at the Hill

[JamieG]

Another nice video from Mellow. First problem in particular looks really cool. A deep water solo too. But the last one is a bit ridiculous (despite looking like a nice climb). How many pads are too many? They must have about 20 down there. Shouldn't this just have a bolt and be a sport climb or f there is gear a trad route? Not sure what the Rocklands ethics are. Bolts ok? Or even a solo without pads if that floats your boat. But that seems like too many pads. Next step is one of those inflatable stuntman landings from the movies, maybe that would actually be better.

[teestub]

I don’t really get how there can be too many pads, it’s not like over bolting or placing pegs, they are there and then gone.

If I was trying something big and had the availability I’d want as many pads as I ld lay my hands on!
