I need some help.  I'm trying to compile a list of dynos and have loads for the UK and a few in Spain and France but am struggling for elsewhere.  Does anyone know of any dynos outside the UK which are big, technical, interesting or just plain hard to send.  Heights, grades, locations, links, photos, videos, first ascenionists, the usual etc...

I've been following the Who's dyno's biggest thread and so got some info from there....I need more!

Cheers

there's one straight through the Ironman traverse at V9 or some other grade. I have never been so exact location is unknown but it's in America.

Iron Fly. Buttermilks, Californ eye yay.

Pocket Rocket at Joe's Valley, Utah looks good. V6?

Lots here too -

Only non European ones in that thread are some posted by HK Stuey, one in Castle Hill Basin and Saturday Night Live at J Tree (V4?).

[r-man]

He didn't say he wanted non-European, he said non-UK. There are quite a few Italian ones. Also, the only one I know -

Dinos Don't Dyno - V8 - Magic Woods.

I know, I only made an observation.

Recent thread on Scottish ones. Not particularly useful though.

I checked out the Mur des Carriers at Franchard Sablons this morning. A very coool dyno wall. With a 7a, 7b, 7b+, 7c+, 8a, 7a all right next to each other, all pretty similar and fun. The 8a (Rainbow Rocket) is amazingly far, you would have to be 8ft tall or have legs like a cricket I reckon!

I assume you are using the formula

p = jf-2

where jf = Johnny Foreigner's Grade and p = Proper British Grade (aka TRUTH, RIGHTEOUSNNES and the only sure path to ENLIGHTENMENT/DEPRESSION)

[account_inactive]

I was using the:

Dylan = Shit at dynos

Therefore when Dylan Crushes problem in a couple of tries grade = piss


Magic Grades.  The clue is in the title

[ian h]

Hey Nash1

Thanks for the Mur Des Carriers...did you have snow today.  We did in Le Mans....about an inch.  Pissing with rain now :-(  Hope the weather improves for you.

Hi Ian

Chez Dyno...that is the "coronation dyno" isn't it?  I remember trying this many many years ago.  A Spanish friend on mine came over to High Rocks with us in 2003 and did it 3rd go....he's a bit of a specialist in these things!  Thanks for the other dynos at High Rocks.  I've got'n a little out of touch with things down on the sandy stuff...still thinks it's great and always look forward to coming back to it.

Cheers
Luc

You're missing loads from Font.  Smatch, and Hale Bopp for starters, but I'm sure you can look them all up somewhere.  Do Dyno's on Routes count?   Orangutan Out Of Jungle Book.  Said to be V9, but noone's repeated it as far as I know. 

[LucP]

Hi Paz

I think I've got Smatch as Smash  will amend.  Hale Bopp's in there....blimey how quickly do you guys type?!  Must be my busted pulley slowing me down or something. 

Dyno's on routes.  I was thinking about this.  They could do.  I'll make a note by them to make sure they're identifiable as a dyno on a route.  So into my list I must add Hugh at Les Eaux Claire or is it UFO....I can't remember precisely but either one of these has a big dyno in a sort of groove on it.

Keep it coming. This is great!!!!

Cheers

No idea about names at rocklands, must be loads though.

There's the Lung Dyno, V4 at Quantum Fields, NZ. I couldn't get to the hold before the dyno though.

[Gus]

Kangaru City is a good one in Font if it's not there already!

[LucP]

Cheers Chris

I had the Lung Dyno and New Zealand but not the bits in between. Have updated my list now.

Thanks for your help.

Luc

[LucP]

Hey Gus

No it wasn't on the list, so thanks very much.  I should have had it there as I know that a couple of my Spanish climbing buddies have done this one.

Oh, yes, it's on there now :-)

Cheers
Luc

I was replying to your first list, hadn't read the second sans-UK one!  I wouldn't assume I've got Smatch right, there're a few different versions, but I'm pretty sure it's not Smash.

[GCW]

Have a wad for being a fellow dyno obsessive.
In your UK list I suspect "The Big Dyno" is the same as "The Undercut Dyno".
