So apart from it being UKB night tonight at Stockport, is there any reason why I shouldn't go? Sensible answers please  ;D

Or was the response from galpinos a bonus, not a warning? I have no issues with men without shirts on, so long as the baby oil is left at home.

The only thread I've ever started about Stockport Wall was earlier this year over on the other channel, and was about the grading in the bouldering room. No topless men were featured in the thread, sorry  ;)

I'll be the chap trying to show a novice (my mate) how to climb.

I would say, "Say hi" but with Tan Man heading down I doubt we'll see anything bar his orange glow.  :)

Have you not seen the weather of late?  I am as pale as a pale thing that's been locked in a pale room in palesville.

Well i went, and thought it was ok. Added a new dimension to stuff already there. Most people where falling off because of the grease. Far too warm in there early on. Cooled down a bit later. Steep training board will be good, but needs to be just screw on for feet, or the holds are going to become pretty ming and the wood ones will break.

I thought it looked really good. I only did the V1/V2 things on the right hand side as I was with my mate who was climbing for the second time.

I did think it was quite high. It seemed higher than the other side? I predict many twisted ankles...

It isn't that high. However, you may be right about the twisted ankle (or some other form of injury) on the blue dyno problem that is currently up. (not quite as easy as it looks if you are a shorty like me)

That blue dyno was good fun today! Shame we were half zombied for the entirety of the brief session, after a miserable attempt stomping around trying to find dry problems in the peak  :thumbsdown:

Spoke too soon, was informed that this has already happened to somebody.

I think it is probably wise for them to put a sign up regarding under 18s, like most walls have on their woodie.

was discussing with dr pinch about the blue dyno. i hate that sort of shit. it inevitably attracts flailing macho punters and they always end in tears. Its dangerous.

Saw two youths trying this problem yesterday. One took really hard tumble and was lucky not to knacker his knee or ankle.

Great new wall. I thought some of the problems were a bit juggy and dynamic and would like to see some with more holds but smaller.
