Two New Routes at LPT
August 22, 2009, 09:29:42 pm
Despite not having had any new routes done for 12 years Lower Pen Trwyn got two new ones tonight. Tommy Chammings climbed a new line in between the start of Over the Moon and The Walking Mussel, this climbs directly up into Over the Moon Direct and finishes up it - Moonwalk 8a+. very good addition. I climbed a new link up, Battle of the Little Big Orme into the top wall of Parasite - imaginatively named Battle of the Parasites 7c+. Pretty cool to cross so much steepness at this grade.

Battle of the Parasites seemed very reach dependent ... could be harder if you can't lank the crux? Properly good though!

The hard move on Battle is despo if your tall too, when i reach out to the good undercut off the backhand going left i'm really bunched and it feels nails. Swings and roundabouts as although its harder to get set up as a shorty the crux move may be easier!

Like busses aren't they.

Good effort.
