Not many people get to flex on Ondra, but here's Martin Stráník doing the 8B+ in Ondra's home town that Adam failed on.

Gun show.

LOVE that. Grotty shoe cam footage (compared to Ondras slick video production team) and a proper (I'm guessing) fuck, the top out holds are dust rubbish moment at the top :D

God I love an overhanging arete

Good to see a strong Czech team visiting the Wiltons

Haha! Looks like similar beta as well, pull on the sharp Rh thing.

Bradders · May 07, 2021, 11:43:41 am

On a similar note, wonder why the boulder Ondra does in his video is called Yorkshire? Seems like it should be Lancashire

Giving away the depth of my ondra fandom here, but Martin found the dirty crimp beta first then Ondra went back to try it out after chatting to Martin about it.

Some low quality footage of some high quality, mainly 7's from across the lakes

Some low quality footage of some high quality, mainly 6C/7As from across cheshire

As an added bonus it features no less than 2 (two) suggested upgrades due to my well-balanced climbing-okay-but-not-well meticulous scientific analysis of comparative difficulty, as well as a wide variety of problems and styles across the county and absolutely nothing at Pisa Wall thank fuck.

Fucking V grades, are we back in 2009?

Otherwise excellent, look like you're moving well fiend (and ripped!)

andy popp · May 10, 2021, 11:47:21 am

Nice! Great to see some of these getting done and on film (the problem at Stonehill is Sufferers Slab, rather than Suffering Slab).

Fiend · May 10, 2021, 11:57:24 am

Duma - cheers. Unfortunately the rippedness (wtf that came from with gyms closed I dunno) has to be hauled up these things along with the legs of lead.... V grades, well they come from the BMC Cheshire book, I always use definitive guide grades, the alternative Font grade estimates would be taken from UKC so balls to that.

Andy - cheers. This one was partly dedicated to you

Will edit the youtube page text about Sufferers - which incidentally I thought was really cool despite it's dusty appearance. Hopefully the Friends Of Pex Hill team will turn their attentions to that wall soon.

Yeah, I think five of those are my FAs. I thought Sufferers Slab was great - Cheshire Life is also a really cool problem.

fatneck · May 10, 2021, 01:44:44 pm

Think Fiend has just initiated the pinnacle of my climbing career by not downgrading an FA of mine

steveri · May 10, 2021, 02:12:26 pm

Nice work, I had a look at Kitty's this weekend on a walk. QOH at Harmers feels hard to me, I was sent home with tail between legs.

Fiend · May 10, 2021, 05:29:52 pm

Cheers guys. Yes definitely. QOH in being "Harmer's bag o'nails" shocker lol. Took me, I dunno, 15-20 goes?? It was quite nice going from not believing that the high RH slopey-pinch-ripple....thing was actually existent, to finding it almost reliable as a hold

Got to calibrate grades done with Pex hewn fingers

Quality one that Fiend, good effort. Nice to se a bit o' Lancashire love

Fiend · May 25, 2021, 10:26:09 am

Something that may or may not make a pissy Tuesday morning more tolerable, and something that you don't see much of: Grinshill ! 6 varied and excellent problems in under 5 minutes, this is true hidden gem territory and it was a pleasure to explore this area*.

Nice work Fiend

indifference looks really good....were you checking the greenery for signs of Coronavirus?

Fiend · May 25, 2021, 11:38:35 am

Cheers! I was checking for mice and shrews. It's a lovely wee problem, I did it partly as a consolation prize after backing off Libertine nearby. It's been topped out in the past and might be worth re-excavating.

teestub · May 25, 2021, 12:29:51 pm

Is that your chalk on the arête (Terminator?) Fiend? That does look great.

Fiend · May 25, 2021, 12:58:48 pm

A mixture of mine from a few attempts, and other people who had been there before. I gave the tops of all the problems a scrub on a rope as they had a bit of dirt / damp on them. Ticking this block would be a really fine day out. Go when there's some sort of Northerly breeze.
