Pretty inspiring and very worrying watching him trying to do the top-out with arms so pumped they could hardly make fists!

This badge would be more appropriate!!!  



The chicken wings make another appearance.........

I'll make a tentative date with it for end of June Will!!!  

The one who does not jam!

You'll piss it Dan, if you lay back past the jamming sections and get to the rests you'll be all over it, your warm up for Requiem.

I like the comment on youtube saying that it didn't help him in anyway

[a dense loner]

Indeed, I think one of the biggest barriers lots of people seem to have preventing them having more fun in their climbing is avoiding things in case of failure

i fail on everything, and still don't have fun

is the correct beta standing on your mat half way up it

I like the comment on youtube saying that it didn't halp him in anyway

I'm presuming "halp" is some verb I was previously unaware of, with a meaning quite unlike that of "help" as "help" is certainly what you get when you sit on your mat halfway through a problem!

[Jaspersharpe]

Is this why Scott's found all these sit starts so easy? 

[magpie]

You lot are cruel, but very funny.

Not bouldering, but just done my first 8a+ in a day. YYFY! Militia at Giggleswick G Spot.

[davej]

mega effort going there tommorrow to start working it 

[nik at work]

Nice one Adam. What's it like? I'm keen to visit Giggleswick this year, was thinking Kleptomania but Militia could tempt me (it's short right?)

Well, i did Kleptomania yesterday, that is basically a V7 on a rope, as you do an easy bit of climbing to a knee bar. Then just 4 moves. Clipping the chain whilst inverted is a tad spicy. I blew it doing that once!

As for Militia. Big moves off goodish holds. Quite powerful and very bouldery. Crux being a throw for a good hold which you need to be accurate for.

Both great routes.

Good knowledge. My interest is growing...

PS. Effort on your crushage today

Get you Holmes

He studies 8a.nu lists on a half hourly basis.  Nothing escapes him

Then clip off the good hold then do a big move of it (if I remember correctly) I blew that a few times as well. My right arm just got knackered. The start was very bouldery to the break on little holds as well.

I think Militia is a better route though they are both good.

YYFY!

Raindogs on Saturday then The Maximum on Sunday!
 

[Adam Lincoln]

The Maximum on Sunday!
 

So it will be nicely ready for me tomorrow
