he doesn't hang about, fine effort 

[ferret]

was never gonna be long

effort ty

is their anything left for u in colorado?

[c.j.d.]

Not to be controversial or anything, but does'nt everyone climb 8b+/8c every day in RMNP?  Seems to be the current trend. Think I'm heading over there with Dense in Feb - their either mutants or...

[Doylo]

it'll be too cold i reckon in feb chris, more of a summer venue so i'm told. Regarding the grades remember Ty has done Dreamtime and 8b's in britain and he reckons Jade is the real deal. I'd love to see some british beasts go over to Hueco or Colorado, i reckon they would bring home some big numbers.

[Paul B]

I'd like to see some american beasts come over here and tell us whether or not our grades are completely out of sync with places like hueco etc.

[steven82]

Yeah someone needs to repeat gaskins problems as we have no one good enough over here

[cowboyhat]

Is that comment meant to provoke derision?

[Jaspersharpe]

I believe so.

[Doylo]

i don't think theres anyone good enough anywhere to do the top 3 gaskins problems. Plus if there were i'd doubt they'd have the motivation to do them. Il pirata isn't exactly the green 45 is it (quality wise!) And thats coming from a fan of the great Jonathan!

[steven82]

I do have to agree with that they aren't the most inspiring lines but they are inspiring grades as they are probably the hardest probs in the world

[Jim]

good to see cowboyhat lurking even if it does require provoking to get him to post

[Fiend]

they are inspiring grades

...and thus the tail wags the dog.

[ferret]

the park climbing is basic n conditions r very consistent, also boulder is full of beastly climbers, hence y alot of people climb hard there. grades r not too soft
jade 8c? daniel woods says so and he is uber uber wad, ive seen it n it dont exactly look easy
Goin in february lol take yor skis 

[Resonate]

there do appear to be a shit-load of 8C boulders...

that list is pretty old too.

[Fiend]

That Ninguna is a shit-hot repeating machine...

Must be an old list, Dreamtime still at 8c, Li'O'Conaelich given any credibility. Doesn't seem to be full of piss-easy stamina fests tho...

[c.j.d.]

I'll blame the february plan on Dense - he reckoned this was a good plan.  No offence met to the wads over there - it just interests me, that sort of thing.  Does sound like one helluva play ground.  When is good?

[Jim]

was gonna say, either ferrets lost some keys off his keyboard or dense has been round with his TXT speak

[r-man]

there do appear to be a shit-load of 8C boulders...

I did a quick google for 8C+ boulders a while ago and was surprised to discover that actually quite a few have been claimed. Don't think any except Tonino '78 have been repeated yet.

video now up on http://www.momentumvm.com
it's not the best quality thing I've ever seen but.....

[Sloper]

On the grade front, I can't comment on the harder grades but I would suggest that in the low end of the market the grades at Hueco and colorado are perhaps 1.5/2 grades harder than the grades in the peak and 1 grade harder than in yorkshire.

Right.. I'm obviously being thick but which way does that go
peak V4 (6b/+-arguments about the V/font conversion aside) = yorkshire V5 = RMNP V6
or the other way round....

[Andy F]

That'll be the other way round...

[a dense loner]

i'm taking absolutely no responsibility for rmnp in feb cjd, you said it was the only time off you had. will have to think of something good
8C+ and tonino 78, yeh right

[webbo]

also will you need a visit to draculas castle for a vampire bite before you go as it appears you can only climb at night in rmnp.
