    Classic Calf, Ilkley

    Can someone put me out of my misery and tell me what the sequence on this is? I can only find one video online (), which doesn't start on undercuts, doesn't use a LH shallow pocket, but at least uses obvious holds. The only undercuts in the vicinity seem pretty bad for a proper sit start, but...

    Kids' climbing shoe exchange

    I have a pair of mildly used EU 26-27 La Sportiva Stickits that my 5-year-old has grown out of, does anyone want them? Seeking a pair of EU 29 (or thereabouts) shoes to replace them with if anyone has a pair to spare. Will pay postage and/or something less than the £40+ for a brand new pair...

    Kids' circuits in Yorkshire/elsewhere

    Just back from giving my kids their first taste of Fontainebleau. (Beyond crap weather but we still had a good time.) I really liked the designation of some of the kids' circuits as being for specific ages eg the 5-9yrs circuit at Canches aux Merciers, or the 3yrs+ circuit at La Feullardiere...

    Child-friendly destinations, East coast of USA

    My sister lives in California, I'm in the UK, and we both have small kids (under 5). Partly to reduce the impact of jetlag we're wondering about meeting up somewhere halfway somewhere with some climbing. Any hints? Probably bouldering venues best but might consider sport. Child-friendly doesn't...

    [Yorkshire] [Shipley Glen] [6B-7A?] Two slopey mantels

    Have done a couple of undescribed (that I can find) problems on a block at the pub end, between the Green Traverse and Black Roof - straight downhill from the easy short kids' slabs. https://www.ukclimbing.com/logbook/crags/shipley_glen-1343/shipley_slopey_slidey-619226...

    Wrist injury experiences (including surgery)

    Hi all. Have myself a nasty wrist injury which has kept me from climbing or doing any training at all for almost four months. I'm at the point where it's no better despite regular powerballing (as per physio/wrist surgeon advice) and I'm wondering about second opinions/pursuing a surgical...

    Blockbuster, Caley

    Here we go... Was working on this the other day when a helpful bystander informed me that it was a mandatory jump start - specifically from LH pocket to RH "ball" - to get the original 7B tick, or alternatively a stand start from LH pocket and RH flattie for 7C. Copious videos show people...

    Hold breakage on The Ashes at Kilnsey

    I know, I was surprised too... I put the clips in on Thursday and noticed that the usual LH pinchy thing immediately after the glued-on crimp was moving. Specifically, there were two bits of loose rock inside the groove/slot that the fingers of your LH go into. This is the hold most people use...

    Found: set of draws at Malham on Saturday

    These draws seemed to be sitting at the bottom of Rose Coronary the whole day - we asked around when we left and no-one claimed them. I'm waiting to hear from someone else who thinks they know whose they are, but thought I'd post up here to in case that turns out to be a dead end. Send me a PM...

    Midweek Yorkshire sport

    Hey there, I've recently moved to Yorkshire and need to expand my list of potential midweek partners up this direction! At the moment I'm pretty keen for sport - I'm working on 7b-c - but also up for bouldering and trad. In case anyone's free tomorrow and wants to get out, my number's zero 7751...
