Title: new even sicker ultra send
Post by: JR on April 27, 2005, 09:51:38 pm

Last week James 'Bog' Hogg climbed one of stanage's last great problems; the diamond face on the boulder slightly downhill from and between back in the YMCA and help the young.

Name: all 14 8000 metre peaks
Grade: Font 6c

That is unless its already been climbed by any number of stanage wads...jonny footwork...

The problem was quickly repeated and confirmed by dave 'scouse' norton.

It is actually very good, and I am a man of exquisite taste.

I can confirm the grade, if not the quality. Worth also noting mine was the long awaited first static ascent.

Well it's definately the first claimed ascent- it was filthy dirty and is a very good problem,therefore appeared to all the world like it hadn't been climbed. So if someone wants to come and "retro-claim" it so be it, but I sure wouldn't want to rub Bogg up the wrong way(or any way), and I wouldn't believe them anyway.
A description of the problem is...
On the aformentioned Diamond face:
 pull on LH flatty in diagonal break, RH in high undercut.
 Get feet up into break, LH to intermediate crimp/sidepull, sort out feet, pop/lank(DAVE) to jug LH. Top out.

it was dirty, but then i remember timmy mallet saying "looks like this walls been brushed".

not a bad problem though i suppose, certainly good enough to be in yorkshire if not the peak.

Aye I remember me saying that too- but none of the holds that we actually used were brushed. Maybe someone had brushed it but didn't have the vision to climb it- or brush the right holds.

It'd be a much better climbing wardrobe if it wasn't on Castors.

scouse isn't blind, he just gets dressed with the light off.
