Well deserved.

Out of curiosity, was this your first full length feature?

Cheers everyone!  :hug:

Yep. It's my fourth film- two short ones that are on my Vimeo account and a half-hour one I made in 2010 that's way too shit for public consumption but is what got me psyched for making climbing films.

Stonnis was meant to be a little tester film to start me out after I'd got a decent camera and computer and had time on my hands due to injury. It didn't turn out that way!

Great work Lore  8)

Waiting to get back on mine. It's a little sharp; I prefer sponge:

Cheers Dave, it's been another surprise. It only took two sessions, after three years of training. It became doable when I finally managed to get a hold as a crimpy undercling instead of as an average pinch.
Go figure.

Yes, great effort  :yes:  That sounds fantastic, as though there's been a quantum shift. Suddenly, out of "nowhere" you reach a little further.

This YYFY column often captures the pure essence better than "significant repeats" or some other arbitrary Wadship.

We really could do with that YYFY T-shirt! Where do we order? Mine's a large.

Hands up all those who agree  :punk:

Well done Will and MrsWill

I notice there was a delay between the event and the posting... were you deliberating between the YYFY and NNFN thread? ;)

Minor yyfy, contract seems like it will be extended 6 months, basement crack should be climbable tonight and someone attractive and female wants to spend time with me. Smashed my existing time on the run home and it felt easy. Strong week!
