Carbide is ace, very soft touch but the lading is appalling.

The rock over onto that slab looks scary, a real mind focusser.

The Sky Project

This amazing line was found last year at the Black Label sector by the Austrians, and is maybe one of the best boulder problems in the world. A true 5 star contender and very pure. This project was enough for Tony to spend his last few days hiking to the boulder on his crutches and trying the moves until far after dark, once he saw it. The project is an almost perfect 3 mover out a large 45 degree overhanging boulder on great incut holds.

Dude! That's just rude! What is it? Where is it? What rock is that? Where do I get more pictures? Where do I get flights?

the "lofootit" might refer to Lofoten? Or it might just be to a Norwegian bird using a loofah on her tits. Not seen the rest of the pics so can't say for sure.

Carnage may know this one, tags indicate its called "Black Magic" at an area called Crumbly in/near Sydney.

A nice pic of bouldering at Stronachlachar, Scotland which annoyingly can't be linked  :spank:

Yeah - I know the problem and the climber well. I've done Black Magic a few times as has Bonjoy, I think, on his travels over here. Its Ducan Macinnis' (who posts on here as DM) shot.
