Awesome! There's a lot of gesturing and gallic shruggery going down there  

Bet there's been more than a few popped tendons at that place.

[dave]

listen very carefully, i shall say this only wence: that place looks fucking rank.

[Bubba]

Looks a lot nicer than any Peak limestone - not that that's saying a lot.

thanks, but i'll take eliminates and pollished snappy holds over solid clean monos any day of the week!

OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOuuuuuccccccccccccchhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
My fingers are aching just looking at them bastards

[Bubba]

That photo is rank  :shock:

So is this one - gum maggots anyone

[Ru]

And there was me thinking it looked pretty good (the monos, not the gum maggots). Am I the only person here that truly appreciates the limestone?

There's just not enough monos in the peak.

[dave]

ok then, top ten natural monos in the UK.

I'll start...hmmm...that one at cragx?
that one on turbulence at another cragx.
that one on trackside boulder.

anymore?

[Bubba]

The one on "Au Revoir MonoDoigt" ?

[a dense loner]

don't worry ru you're not alone. the peak does need more lime mono's

Av you noticed how the soundtrack doesnt quite fit in with the action or dress or attitude of said frenchmen.... Flashed is a canadian company so you get the impression its been shoe horned in, mind you the cats down at font with there cotton lycra and big jumpers tucked in are exactly G's from the ghetto

Easily the worst crag I have ever visited. The bouldering is rubbish, unusually for France they haven't even done a good job of chipping it. The majority of the problems are on manufactured pockets. Don't ever be tempted to visit cos its miles from any decent crags.

[webbo]

i've actually been twice

[a dense loner]

i think the mushroom formations look amazin, n would gladly go if i thought about trainin mono's for a bit :shock: but don't think that's gonna happen

having watched it again with sound i see what you mean. i was expecting summert a bit more like the Allo Allo theme tune. And they don't seem to be down with typical "french footwork" very much.
