I'm back, what did I miss?...I'd be interested to know what my climbing partners make of all that waffle.
Otherwise, you should definitely start projecting hard stuff, you'll be surprised with how hard you can actually pull. Excellent, hard, workable, roof problems to throw yourself at include:- Jason's Roof - Red Baron Roof- Stu's Roof
You have the skill and finger strength but lack the raw power

I'm not sure how much use my board will be for this as its covered in crimps and there aren't many big holds on it. I can set some long moves on the "warm up jugs" if that will help.

I take it that is not the bit that allows you to hold the hold (finger strength), but the bit that allows you to pull up and through the hold? i.e. pulling 'through' crimps, compression moves, anything feet-off etc. Has anyone any suggestions about what exercises I might do to address this?I'm not sure how much use my board will be for this as its covered in crimps and there aren't many big holds on it.

Also have access to a pull up bar at home and the work gym, which has a fancy thing that allows you to do assisted (one armers) or weighted (pull ups). Any thoughts?
I've always wondered who are the guys bouldering on The Wave when Jerry gets in.
Not convinced, there's clearly no floating black rectangle covering his eyes.
