Hi all,

A while ago I told you all about my new bouldering site http://www.themoves.co.uk .  Well I've updated it and added a bunch of new features.

Please check it out and let me know what you think.

I think it's really nicely done, good work :)

Not much use for me, coz I like working stuff out on my own or with my mates, but handy if you're stuck on something.

Yeah, tis good. Especially so now that you don't have to register to look at things. I prefer working stuff, but I'd probably have a look if I got stuck on summat. Reckon you should use the font grades for the peak though, as the B grades from the rockfax are often less accurate.

...What about problems with multiple methods? Will you be including various sequences? Just wundrin.

Notice you miss out the intermediate roof hold on Remergence, possibly not the easiest sequence?

What's with the non-approved lank beta sequence on Submergence :roll: . We aren't all 10 foot long.

r-man, had thought about doing alternative solutions but it got put on the back burner.  Maybe next year.  The next job it to get font grades on and to do LOADS of problems!

It's an odd one Submergence. Going off the sidepull for the slot is a recent and very logical way to climb the line of the problem, but is not the way it was/is traditionally done. The 7c/7c+ tag applies for the original matched polished sloper then go up beta and the new beta is considered 7b+.

I've done submergence by the big move off the sidepull and i can say if blind date is benchmark 7b+ then this "easy" submerg sequence feels a grade harder to me. but then agin blind fig also feels a grade harder than submerg and thats given 7c in the new guide- maybe this is evidence for a new grade of 7b++.

i've never given you harder than 7b+ for submergence with the lank beta, since the only hard move(s) is utilising the polished death.
