Title: Beautiful weather at last! what new lines did you send?
Post by: Resonate on February 17, 2008, 08:59:15 pm: With the weather so fantastic over this week, I'm sure you all got out and got to play on your projects... so who sent what? FAs, cool repeats, anything... Piccies or video would be good too.

You did all get out... right?

I managed my FA of a cool un-named (probably previously climbed but not sure) V3/4 at Down Tor (Dartmoor). Photos will have to wait till i find the chap with the camera.

Post by: grimer on February 17, 2008, 10:53:11 pm: I just got one bit of a buttock onto that crimp out left. I sort of half-slept the first night, but on the sceond night there was a really bad condition so it was just a 'night in crimp position'. They had to pull a couple of dead Slovenians off the Death Double Knee Hop on day 2.

Post by: tommytwotone on February 17, 2008, 11:09:05 pm: Not a bad weekend bouldering-wise (considering I'm meant to be doing mainly routes at the moment...)

Got that 7a slab at Burbage South near the path Friday, Dan's Wall at Curbar yesterday and did some of the Stanage 'Blue Circuit' (which I thought was excellent, and took me to loads of things I've never done in years of going there) today before wasting some more skin and energy on Deliverance.

Off to France tomorrow as well - happy days. ;D

Post by: Kim on February 19, 2008, 06:06:47 pm: I thought I did a new problem, but it turned out the guide should have said "an amazing slab ~~project~~, a flawless sheet of clean natural grit above a good landing. The ~~holdless~~ line just left of centre is fairly inspiring."

::)
