Good knowledge both, thanks https://github.com/bourbonspecial/UKStrongPeople/blob/master/men_boulders.md

You'll have to forgive my ignorance as I don't know Martin, but did he do superman pre or post break? And what's the knowledge on pre/post break grade of superman? I've got 8A+ to 8B in my mind but not sure if that's right.

[benpritch]

Superman was post break, think it is generally thought of as 8b now

Thanks for clarifying Ben, I've added in superman for him too https://github.com/bourbonspecial/UKStrongPeople/blob/master/men_boulders.md

Pretty sure it was on significant repeats?

[CrimpyMcCrimpface]

ah yes √

[yetix]

Henry Henderson has done Keen Roof bypassing 8A and 8A+

[yetix]

also Pete Dawson did Pilgrimage some time ago so should be bumped up to 8B+

[yetix]

And Kieran Forest needs to go on for having done Pilgrimage too.

Lewis Roy did Supersize Me 8B at Dumby the other day. 2 years ago he was struggling on 6As!

Thanks for the updates everyone, much appreciated https://github.com/bourbonspecial/UKStrongPeople/blob/master/men_boulders.md

Barrows, while I agree in principle the list is broadly based on consensus grades. Bit of a shame, as otherwise I'd give you V16 for Wheel of Life and put you at the top of the list of the UK's strongest boulderers

Tim Blake did Ilse of Wonder a while back so needs adding

Good knowledge, I've added him in https://github.com/bourbonspecial/UKStrongPeople/blob/master/men_boulders.md

David?

Craig David Davies it is then. The rap/politics mashup we've all been waiting for 

More seriously, great effort! Looks like an ace line https://github.com/bourbonspecial/UKStrongPeople/blob/master/men_boulders.md

does Aidan need bumping up with Superpower as its 8C/+? not sure with slashes if you're using upper or lower end grade on this or allowing for slashes?

Good question. Im kinda keen to avoid the ambiguity of slash grades. Perhaps we just wield the collective power of UKB and unilaterally upgrade it to 8C+...

I vote for taking the lower grade of slash grades. If he wants the plus he'll have to commit properly.

This sounds like the most British was of dealing with it 😄

At some point, however, Aidan will have to stop using "I haven't really tried enough hard boulders to be able to say" line - not a dig at all, just more amusing Britishness.
