This thread has been mind-blowing of late. Chapeau to all the wads making it happen!

He's done Practice of the Wild before and I think he took 8C for that, though it seems like quite a few people take 8B+ for it these days.

Beast 

! If hes going to uni anywhere near any climbing there'll be some good ticks next year

Sheffield I believe. Comps back on next year though so may go back indoors.

What a crying shame that would be. Still, each to their own.

Maddy Cope repeated ‘Final Round’ today, Tom Randall’s E9 on the iconic IIam Rock, Dovedale. 8b on trad. Very impressive.

Nice! Is that the second ascent? I thought Jordan B might have done it but can't find anything online about it.

When he repeated ‘Eyes Wide Shut’ I think he mentioned Final round too.

Jordan, are you there? Have you done it too?

Actually in the spirit of Slackers, I’ve found it.

...I first had a look a few weeks back just after repeating toms HXS on ilam rock earlier in the day. (That's a toughie)

Is that it?

Jack Pal got the third ascent of Flip Flopera (only Varian and Aidan have also done it?) at the Bowderstone the other day. Must be pretty significant that given its at arguably the most trafficked venue in the Lakes?

Don't think Jordan has seen this today, but I can confirm that he repeated it a couple of years ago. Although it didn't take him particularly long (2 visits?) he did find the climbing very tough and he was chuffed to do it as it is a quality bit of rock. Respect to Maddie, this is no pushover for the grade.

That’s cool. Has a British 8B been flashed before? (Apart from that one in the pass that people view as 8A+)

Far as I know yes it's just Nathan Phillips' flash of Ropes of Maui that's the other contender. Any others?

[turnipturned]

Yeah it’s well impressive, recon it’s pretty benchmark 8B.

Be interested if he did it the OG way or kneebar way, regardless both pretty knacky methods, even more impressive.

I assume he went to investigate Aidans recent exploits?!? Probably have to ask his management that though! 

[Doylo]

Probably have to ask his management that though!

Can’t be long until we’re getting press conferences?

My vote's on you for media relations manager.

[SA Chris]

pubic relations more like!

Kind of more impressive than Ropes in that sense I think. Short, knacky, power boulder as opposed to more of a longer power endurance thing. 

[User deactivated]

Ropes is a crazy flash imo. Lots of little tricks to learn to make it feel 8A+. Think some folk are still taking 8B too. Props to Nathan.

Flashing Isla I think is mega as the crux is very dynamic and folk seem to think it’s mid 8B. It’s also not an easy style to flash even if you can Inspect all the holds off the floor.

Comp climbers are operating on a completely different level it seems.

[Adam Lincoln]

Assume he didnt use the Varians beta? (Knee)

Got all excited when i saw a vid of dans with a kneebar. Sadly its not as good as Dan makes it look!
