Title: ace repeated
Post by: irish si on February 11, 2006, 05:59:26 pm: 15, yes you heard it 15 year old Tyler Landman has mad an impressive repeat of the Ace 8B at the plantation. After very nearly doing it in a session it finally took him 3/4 sessions, which is very impressive indeed, considering how long it took Malc and Ben.

waddage.

To be fair, it's usually slopes who says that. Maybe he subscribes to the 'if you say it often enough, it will become funny' school of humour

Post by: Fiend on February 14, 2006, 01:04:47 pm: Oh yeah Saturday. Heh, if any of you saw a guy on a longboard cruising down the road below the Buckstone, that was my brother, with me taking some photos and being impressed with the snow.

The weather was lovely later on wasn't it.

Post by: cowboyhat on February 14, 2006, 05:57:31 pm: This really is an important ascent. Like a dense man once said, 'Font 8b, its not to be sniffed at.'

As previous ascensionists ben and malcom are outspoken advocates of the Campaign For Real Grades TM the Ace is definatley quite hard. Lets hope tyler doesn't start shaving and discover girls, we need someone to show those american upstarts. or something.

Post by: Fiend on February 14, 2006, 09:45:46 pm: Also, as those great pictures show, it looks like a top quality and very pure problem.
