What was the name again??

Short arse's slab, if my memory serves me. About font 7b with 25 repeats (including 6 flashes in roller skates), wasn't it?

I heard it was a bit of eliminate....

La-la-laaaaaa I'm not listening....

Pretty good likeness there, Nik, but just a tad deficient on the hair front.

Jim · December 11, 2008, 11:53:25 am

yes, Nik's wall looks very hard, lovejoy's thing seems fairly hard too. Trouble is the climbing in that part of rivelin is pretty uninspiring.
The edge itself has some pretty good quality rock with some quality highish routes/highballs. I'll certainly be going back to try europe after rain and have a loook at some of the other problems/routes

Me, on In Bloom, at Dumbarton Rock.

Classic 7c, rather sketchy top out but I was pumped out of my little mind!

Stuart Brown, making light work of Sabotage, also at Dumby.

When the fuck did all that graffiti appear?

andy_e · December 12, 2008, 08:01:12 pm

Detroyed the classic graffiti!

willackers · December 12, 2008, 08:05:11 pm

I moved to Glasgow from Sheffield about 5 months ago and the local lads tell me it got really bad just before I got here, it's ruined some of the starting footholds on a few of the problems and it looks a fookin right mess!

There was a bit of a problem with the neds setting fires under the problems too, Malc Smith had to glue some holds back on to Sanction after it was damaged.

The little swines!

The climbing's still amazing though!

Forgot to say, and please don't think I'm pissing on anyones bonfire as it's a bon effort.
In Bloom always used to start from the big hold on Skint Knuckles (round to the left of Slap Happy). Only 2 extra moves but it cocks up your hands on the Slap Happy starting hold. I used to match hands, which made a bigger reach out right. Some people did a tricky hand jive to get crossed as you were at the start. Having said that, Pongo is still the crux

willackers · December 12, 2008, 09:25:51 pm

???

I was told it started from the jug on Slap Happy and that's where I've seen everyone else starting it, I can't see it being much of a problem starting further left as long as you take the jug on Slap Happy correctly with crossed hands.

Classic problem anyway, top end 7c as well I think.

GCW · December 12, 2008, 09:31:05 pm

Nah, I don't think it'll make a difference to the grade. It's just that's all of us started to the left, including Dave.
Don't worry, I'd take the tick. Good effort.

willackers · December 12, 2008, 11:16:37 pm

Cheers mate!, well chuffed I did it, done a few of the problems around that grade at Dumby and that was by far the hardest, it's such a good line too!

So psyched for all the hard stuff and there's so much to go at!

One from last year. Heard the track again today and remembered it was on this video. Classic Stuart Price making something that was good already even better. What with Keith crushing Ticino again I thought I'd remind us of some of his classic locked off camera filming...

Jim · December 14, 2008, 02:24:33 pm

Johnny was right, your arms are piss weak

cowboyhat · December 15, 2008, 08:33:27 pm

You got a team of guys working round the clock on that?

I get by.

GCW · December 23, 2008, 08:46:52 pm

A short, hopefully better edited vid. It may (or may not) develop into a longer film....

thustler · December 23, 2008, 10:58:27 pm

Nice vid, well edited at one point I almost wanted to cross the border into the worng side of the pennines to go bouldering!

Adam Lincoln · December 23, 2008, 11:00:08 pm

Poor Amber, she didn't get any donut, nasty Nik....
Good vid G, nice editing.

GCW · December 23, 2008, 11:02:14 pm

I've got over 90 minutes of stuff to edit, so this may end up being longer. Just experimenting to see how it goes down, cheers for the feedback.

Adam, Amber gets to sit about in the cold for the occasional snack- she has a cruel owner

I am just putting a load of crappy stuff together from before the wide angle lens. And also to free up some tapes for Font. Should be up tomorrow, nothing special.

Has got, Pixie Tits, Stu's Roof LH, Stu's Roof, and Pistol Whip, so good for beta.

GCW · December 23, 2008, 11:14:33 pm

I'll look forward to it.
Jeez, Adam- tapes are so cheap just buy fresh ones. Plus you may risk drop outs if you re-use them.

Haha, i kind of just want a spring clean of crap footage and get rid of it online! Start a fresh, new, good footage, and start using final cut. Cant get into premier. I just end up editing in imovie. After font will be different though

nik at work · December 24, 2008, 09:31:16 am

That dog gets fucking loads of donuts, and anyway she loves bombing around a wide variety of crags in all weather. It's certainly a step up from being confined in a room with a marauding 1 year old....

Nice vid GCW, you could have edited out the Vitruvian top out though
