Just been a pondering, but have any of these Smith epics ever been repeated? 

[Paul B]

Dont think lothlorian has.

[andy_e]

One, the other, or both have been done by Godskins. Not sure which...

[Nigel]

Vaaaauge... what makes you think this, I wasn't aware Gaskoid had done either/both of these? Source? The Earl in his blog mentions trying "the traverse" at Kyloe, so a repeat might be on the horizon.

I remember reading it in OTE a while back, just let me dig out the mag...

Everything's in boxes, this could take some time. It was in the OTE with Bransby doing a first ascent on the Eigg on the cover, and there was an article about Gaskins and a list of everything he's done, I'm sure it was in there...

it was a double issue, wasnt it?

Oh that was a great issue. The cover was dynamite.

edit:

Have just dug out said issue. There IS a gaskins article , there IS a tick list , but no there ISN'T any mention of these traverses

damn it, Andi, I was all poised to give you some +ve karma then n'all. Good knowledge on the issue mind. Judging by his problem history circa 1993 Dense should be considering Hubble.

I saw the Earl trying this over a year ago - being filmed for the long delayed "the county" video.  He twice slipped off from "easy" moves - triggering a quite awesome tantrum before he dashed away to Bowden - ranting, screaming, chalk-bag kicking, the full monty.  I don't think he managed it since then.

not forgetting to do up the chalk bag first no doubt
