I quite liked the fact you could do it with your fingers while holding camera with two hands, rather than having to let go with one to pinch a dial, like the older MX had.

Back from a great four days in Font for a mates' 40th. Weather a bit dull and drizzly, but climbed every day and the craic was amazing. Some entertaining lastmoveitis...

Ticked Molunk on Tuesday. Absolutely brilliant problem. First new 7C in a while and it only took two shortish sessions - suited me down to the ground though.

Beautiful piece of rock.

First climbing trip in nearly three years booked - Siurana for a long weekend in March with Sean off here.    A good incentive to get training and continue to shed these extra lbs I've put on.   :weak bench:

It appears I'll be on this very same trip! Looking forward to it,

Grade wise best climbing day ever. Brad pit and silk sit... Happy now after weeks of rain...

Huge YYFY. Have only flashed one 7A+ before, Andy's opus "The Dark Ark" at Harmer's Wood, which is very much my style. Today I flashed Mark's Roof at Gardom's, which is my complete anti-style. Pulled up to the left hand sloper, got the right hand one, strained everything and slapped the little finger pocket at the top. Just about caught it open handed, juuuuuust about squeeze it to a crimp. Puuuuuuuuul, foot uuuuuuuuuuup. Sooooooo close! At the top I had absolutely nothing left to give.

YYFY!

This was counteracted by a NNFN when, on the last go of the day, I slapped the top of Suavito, feet came off, spinning around, held it, and then promptly dabbed on my spotter before pulling over the top.

NNFN!

Well done strong young lads. Today I climbed outside for the first time in 11 weeks since tearing my hamstring.

[masonwoods101]

Least its been rubbish weather but

good flash that, must have been a fight.

Don't worry about Suavito, E5 innit, route rules.

[Johnny Brown]

He shouldn't have been standing there. We would have seen you at Suavito but I spannered my foot on the start and had to go home.

[dunnyg]

Shit spotting innit.

[a dense loner]

Is this what happens when you build a massive board? Gibb thinks he's 20 again and does a finger and you suddenly think you're strong and forget how to use your feet for landing? Next you'll be telling me that PaulB's been a silent partner for years!

[Will Hunt]

I cheekily ripped Warb's video from his Facebook page and put it on YouTube so I could share it here. As you can see, its quite a dab.
In fairness to dunnyg, had he not been stood in the exact same spot, doing the exact same thing on two previous tries, this attempt wouldn't have happened. It would have been off to Chesvegas infirmary after helicoptering into that horrible boulder.

[Fiend]

Combined tactics, Puttrell would approve.

[Johnny Brown]

I think the dab was more than compensated for by the commitment on the previous go. More impressive than a certain diminutive sponsored hero earlier in the day.

[Denbob99]

Got my first 7B today, was a vague goal for this year and I'm made up to get it. Looking forward to the coming grit season, not had much of a chance to get out yet.

Name and shame. The body slam at the start of the video is Dave Warburton, who took about 3 identical falls and gave himself a nose bleed. My falls were of the slap the top, hold it for a moment and then spin out of control missing the pads completely variety.

The funniest thing was Warbs going for one last effort at the end, not fancying the top slap and dropping off in control... right  through the gap in the pads. How we laughed.

Minor YYFY, the guardian thought my picture was good enough to get shortlisted (first one on the page). Never entered a photo comp before. Nice to get a result 

It is a very amateur comp mind

I was wondering if it was the same one...
