What to do in between attempts? Talk shite to the camera. I know the Copleys weren't twins...or were they? Time flies.



If you're totally inspired (what's not to love?!), it's worth giving the prow an ab first as the penultimate hold has just been fixed - worth a brush of the holds anyway.

What happened to the Copley twins? I imagine they're now living in a trailer at a truck stop. They sleep by day and, as dusk falls, the abusive bar owner wakes them roughly from sleep to go on stage and do buildering performances for whooping Doncastrian rednecks. Until one day Gresh walks into the bar and their stars change forever.

Nice one for fixing Light Worker, very good problem. How on earth did it ever get 7C+ though?!

In the Copley brothers video about developing some of the problems in the quarry they were talking about using the very small edge up and right of the high sloper to gain the top rather than the jug to the left. This would make the problem a lot harder but would be very eliminate. It is also worth bearing in mind the difference it makes with the holds being really clean. The slopers on the face were previously as green as the rest of the block; this isn't something you can get off with a quick brush. I can imagine it feeling 7C+ when Mike first did it if he only spent 30 minutes on it.

Enjoyed the video Guy, where next?

It looks like there are two problems on UKC, Light Worker and Light Walker. The latter being the original climb that Mike did (going off this video) but also an eliminate (going off the UKC descriptions).

I think that is actually Light Worker (the name in the video is different to the video name). Light Walker is the eliminate that avoids using the arête or the ramp to the left.

Another video for no-one to watch  :2thumbsup:  Maybe a worthwhile option in the forthcoming good weather??

Problems for future reference: Linea Negra , Fontanelles , Androsterone , Morning Sickness , Love Handles

Looks really good.

Yeah that's how I did Light Worker.

It has got to be the delights of Nearcliff Wood incl. interviews with local mad max riders, or maybe Lound Hill, some great heckling opportunities for the roof.

Lovely little flick on Morning Sickness. I think the clag adds charm.

Good knowledge, that does come to mind now. From Scunthorpe to Flock Hill, if only I'd known a few years ago.

Thanks WFT (and sheavi). I had to do MS like that as I couldn't stretch properly onto the sloper, let along the sloper jug - quite an exciting move. It was that weird "dry mist" - there was actually windswept ice fins on a couple of bits of rock and reeds, but the rock itself was bone dry (temp drop IIRC).

Just a note.
The flake the right hand crimp is on on The Hagg had some play in it today. Not sure if it's always been like that or if it's new. I didn't fancy using it that's for sure.

They came back a couple of years ago. Now into CrossFit for play and rope access for work. Nice lads, I think RedTips seems even longer ago to them now.

It looks like your bouldering in a postcard on that last shot - what a beautiful day.

Cropped during editing to make static shots seem slightly less dull.

Nice. I've seen one of the panning things you can mount on a tripod, might be fun to play with on timelapses. Once I replace my DSLR :(

At the time I regretted not having a camera with me, but the phone footage turned out alright
