To be pedantic, removing the hold is the safe option if gluing is decided against

I guess this has been on the cards for a while, the most surprising thing is how easy she seems to have found it. Janja climbs Bugeleisen sit

Excellent stuff. To me she looked like she was trying hard!

I don't know of any examples of holds being reinforced with sika at Pembroke previously - if they have been, the sculptor has probably kept quiet about it.

I think this has been done at Pembroke previously. I can’t put my finger on where though; I certainly know of bolt stubs which have been sika’d over and it is well known there have been some acts of downright vandalism at Pembroke historically.

If Von T is competent and wants to sika the hold without making a mess, go for it. Lots of good advice on threads on here for sika’ing limestone - do your research.

As Si hints, do not claim responsibility if you do it and it goes well. Do expect a lot of criticism if you mess it up.

Doing nothing is likely the safer option. One person’s crucial is another’s …

Shawn Rabatou also climbed Story of three Worlds twice in a session becuase he dabbed on the a tree the first time he climbed it.
So he just climbed it once then  ;)

I went with 100m of Petzl Club 10mm from Inglesports. Seemed like a good compromise on weight/diameter/durability and cost. We’ll see how it fares.

Who are the forerunners - Trump, Biden, RFK- Jr,

It would be fascinating to see RFK-Jr get in, very unlikely I'd imagine due to his status as the enemy of truth, unfortunately it looks like Trump vs Biden.

I am just a poor boy, though my story's seldom told
I have squandered my resistance for a pocketful of mumbles
Such are promises
All lies and jest
Still a man hears what he wants to hear
And disregards the rest, hmm
