Title: A life aesthetic
Post by: priscilla wimbush on November 09, 2009, 10:55:06 pm

Congrats to CJD who's looking good with a new 8b at Moel-Y-Gest - A life aesthetic. Sounds like a trademark power move is the meat of the line. Any more info/piccies peeps?

Walk into the third quarry where the other problems are, bash your way to the left hand side (looking in) Find a small ish block with a beautiful prow on it. Sit down, good ish hold for left (on the prow), 2 finger edgey thing for right, poor smears, jump 5 feet up and right to a big hold on the wall throw round a toe hook, go again to top match and mantel.  Fraid I dont have any pictures, sure some will appear.

He also has some film footage, which I saw yesterday. This might appear at some point. Problem looks great, really wild and funky.
