Both look good, I have seen that video before and wondered what the problems were.

Doyle has better taste in music than these Euro's.

That's the problem right of Eisprung that I was on about (Block 16 in the Rah Plats Plats area). It's unamed in the guide but gets 7c.

i think all the problems in that vid of mine are really good. Am keen to go back and do the ones that 5c did an i didn't. Has anyone tried/ done the '7b+' left of that 7c wall that Neil does in the vid, looked much harder than the 7c to us!

Guess I was wrong earlier. If I´m not mistaking that 7B+ is Brechstange. We thought it felter harder than the 7C too :-\
It´s block 20, boulder a in the Röker guide. Might be wrong, like most of the stuff in the guide. We used it only to find the areas...

Had a look at the Blockheart (Roker) guide guide last night and it seems that Brechstange and Eisprung are the same problem (Eisprung being the name given in the Blue Chironico guide). This and the problem to it's right are both given 7c in the blue guide.

so,
ticino will have to wait.
i got the job at the climbing shop, so for the next three months no roadtrips for me, but despite this, i'm very happy, even if i'll have to move to florence, find a new house, and, basically, work.

Some local guy told me it had lost holds and that was about two years ago, not sure if its been redone. As you say looks (and feels) nails!
