... but imagine what rupert could do, had he the balls of the sketcher!
Yeah i dont think just 'jumping off' is the way. You need practice sketching. A good way is to do some onsights or first redpoints that are hard for you and just go for broke - no saying 'take'. Its this practice in climbing out of your skin above ur bolt that you need. Oh and taking the biggest falls you can whilst dogging mecca when trying hard links.
Can someone read all this back to me pls? I'm only a rope access worker
Looking forward to reading the next blog about Mecca having been crushed to dust ...
You don't have to skip the last clip anymore cos of the kneebar tho do you?Do it Dobbin you're a beast!
Don"t think of it as a kind of training that you do once a week, but do a little bit every single time you put a rope on.
I sacked off trying Mecca some years back. I occasionally feel like getting involved again. All in all I’m glad I continue to resist these urges.

It’s all very well other folk going ‘yeah you can do it!’. They just want to hear a good news story, it’s not their blood, sweat, tears and time on the line. Sounds like you’ve found a way to enjoy climbing and get stuff done, is it worth sacking this to jump on the seige bus? Do you really want to tie up all your free time for some indeterminate period and become a hostage to fortune again? I continue to think trying Mecca would be a poor use of my time and motivation. Just wanted to give an alternative perspective to the glee crew.PS I don’t doubt you can do Mecca.
