In other news, inspired by Liam, I bought some anti-hydral a couple of weeks ago. Absolute game-changer. More effective than about three years worth of training. Can’t believe I’ve been putting up with my awful sweaty tips all this time. Season seems to be winding down a little bit, hoping I still get a good couple of sessions in at LPT before winter.
Careful with the antihydral Rob, it's great until it fucks you. I degloved an entire tip 2 weeks ago at Rhiw Goch and only now is my skin remotely back to where it was.But it's defo v useful if used well!
26mm edge
Good news on the link Shark - what's the rest like at the break before the junction with Crucifixion?

I'm considering going up an edge size after hearing both Tyler Nelson and Lattice state that more force is exerted on a bigger edge and therefore it is probably better for strength gains. I currently use a lattice edge which is a rounded 20mm and it's barely half a pad for my gigantic shovel hands! The lattice edge is very nice for drags but I don't think the large radius promotes very good half crimp form.
Considering my tested max on this edge at the start of July was +42kg, and late July I was doing this session +30kg, this feels like good progress!

Maybe not such a factor with the edge you are using but temps can have a big impact on max hangs scores so I prefer to compare against scores from ~12 month previous.
I'll have a go with the Taylor campus rung and see how I get on. The rungs they currently have available are 28mm but I assume that will still work for me as a 1 pad edge. Shark, personally I notice no correlation whatsoever between my hang scores and temperature (PB's or lows any time of year), but my scores do fluctuate wildly from week to week, or even session to session, I assume due to freshness or recruitment. I'm always amazed to see how consistent weekly scores are from others in this thread.
A tough E3 for me. Hobbit is still up in Wales and gratifyingly reports Rhoscolyn E4s feel much easier! Or perhaps he’s just tickling my ego.
