A new pair of shoes does the trick. First go after putting the draws on - didn't feel too bad! Second 29 in two days and second 29 ever.

First go after dogging the draws in and cleaning the holds - a year since my finger popped and I'm feeling better than ever! First 29!

27 is probs a bit much. The hardest moves, apart from the final move to the anchors, were on the 25 and the move to the anchors is not only part of a 26 but apparently easier with the right beta. Since the traverse is full of good rests, this should be 26 at most. Maybe 25.

| 28 | ★★★ Meet The G - with Luke | 17m | Nowra | ★★ Very Good | Sat 20th Jun 2020 | |||
Each boulder problem felt desperate dogging in the draws and working out the moves. I gave myself zero chance on my first real shot but each of the boulder problems felt surprisingly doable. I didn't start believing until I found myself at the rest before the final boulder - and I managed not to fluff the final move! Red pointed first shot!

Burly! Putting the draws on it was so hard to imagine just holding on to clip. Managed to send on the second redpoint attempt - I found a solid heel toe cam right where I needed it at the crux!

Didn't climb it particularly well but managed to snag the ascent in the full sun anyway. Not that certain of the grade because I don't climb outside enough...maybe 28?

Not too bad at 27 as long as you can crimp. Took me a go to work out and brush the moves and then ticked next shot.

That bottom section feels as hard today as when I was working this back in the day - whilst the top is cruisy. Today I warmed up in awful dewy wet conditions before the rock had dried off and got skinned knuckles for my troubles. Lucky the dew dried off and conditions improved a lot!

| 30 | ★★★ Pimp Behind The Wheel | 12m | Nowra | ★ Good | Sun 7th Jun 2020 | |||
Decided to have a look-see as I'd done Hustler's Dream first shot! Solid climbing up to an even more solid boulder problem crux! Without working out the move I lowered down and found the beta on youtube. My "redpoint" go ended at that same move but this time I was at least able to do it after resting. Felt possible in better conditions.

I was going for Tickled Pink Potty Mouth Princess but surprised myself putting up the draws. All in vain because I didn't get the extension putting up the draws.

Thwarted by the heal rubber of my shoe peeling off during the crucial heel. A surgery attempt on the shoes failed to stem the bleeding. My second red point go ended at the same time with more rubber peeling off.

Took me a few goes to work out the moves - the last traverse is a doozy! I made it into the crux on my final attempt and pretty happy with that. Better conditions may assist in winter...if climbing is allowed anymore with this whole corona thing.

I came here to try the harder routes but found this surprisingly hard - doesn't go easily.

Had an onsight go that ended at around the fourth draw...though perhaps going for the onsight was a tad optimistic. It took me a bit of time to work out all the moves, and had a bit of help from Duncan who happened to be around. Pity it started raining and I couldn't give it a second go.

After ticking Meet the G first red point burn, I felt pretty confident this would go down pretty easily. Turns out that move is still low percentage. Two solid attempts - both of which I had the power just not the luck to send.

Still classic...thought I can't help but think it'd be mega classic 19 without that one hard move.

Managed to pull the first move but fell off going to the anchors. Power and strength don't help up there!

Actually worth getting on and maybe ok for 16...if you completely ignore getting to and then past the first bolt.
