Title: New V10 in Wales
Post by: c.j.d. on December 06, 2003, 10:27:45 am

Hello ladies - good weekend I hope!  To cut to the chase here's a new problem for those who enjoy that flying feeling.  The black wall on the rear of the Gallt Y Ogof boulder in the Ogwen Valley now hosts a new line (well , move!).  "Diamond Eyes", V9/10, takes the blank wall on the left of "Sway On", V11.  Pull on using small crimp on the right and backhand flatty with your left.  kick off non-existent smear with right foot and catch the top - easy peasy!

You're putting Si's new guide out of date already !

Have added it to the problems database - who did the first ascent?

sorry, forgot that bit!  Chris Davies.  The sit down start is very hard.  Fingers of a wolferine needed - any takers?
