Strong choice of music!

Good determination by ascensionist  number 2. Effort to both.

Cheers, I can't believe he missed the hold and still had the energy to hang on and go for it again!

[Clart]

 

  indeed!

As a Brit he had a duty to dissuade people from using the word 'send'. And did he really say 'bayta'?! 

[Clart]

On a related note, has anyone seen Sport Climbing 101 with Chris Lindner? Worth it for the clip where he shows you how not to behave at the crag, funny as.

[GCW]

 

What's an "instuctional DVD"?

[Sloper]

I must say his accent is abosutely tip top.

Send bayta, he's obviously talking to n**ger the Labradour just out of shot.

Beware the hun in the sun, now 'gypt for the gaston and crank like it's yo last turn on the pipe.

Don't forget, Dense, that's the highlights.

LJB looks vicious! Good fighting skills.

[Johnny Brown]

Effort. I think the grade disparity on Monologue is whether you can stick the top off that left foothold.

Ta, hadnt got past the first jam, before that effort, there was no way i was comin off.

Its a good job the left hand gets better and better, but if i was any shorter theres no way i would have had the stretch.

[dave]

i don't get it - there's no monos, and it doesn't look that log.

[Fiend]

Eh wot?? I thought Monolog climbed the left arete not both. That just looks like "unspeakably bad beta" for The Flakes to me!

[Krank]

Eh Wot?? no prolem called the flakes on the magic roundabout.

Goin on local knowledge.

[Fiend]

The Flakes is the line of holds up the right arete you're using for your right hand and foot. Although a better sequence is to use them for your left hand and foot too

[Krank]

Thats the pinches, Mr Fiend

The starting right hold is the only hold the 2 problems share. Indirectly given beta from Mr Turner through a friend, we spent time trying the left arete on its own, as thats what the description in the guide sounds like. Then my friend was out wit AT and was told the holds out right are in. I could be wrong but thats what i have been told.

[Johnny Brown]

I've always tried it hugging both aretes, and I've been there with Mr Turner himself, look at me.

[SA Chris]

Didn't know Andi spent much time there, more of a Staffs devotee.
