Ascents in Paarl Rock

First multi-pitch, second draw is the only nightmare of the climb, the rest casual climbing. The abseil was lekker as well.

Awesome climb with the legend himself. My first multi-pitch. Amazing experience!!

Did it clean as part of the Maties Ultimate Linkup (MUL)

Great! Not sure of the grade, time will tell. Did it with kneepads.

Really cool mantle move

I only did the first pitch as my partner doesn't know how to multipitch. Finding the bolts for the first pitch was impossible and I ended up downclimbing the route, which was sketchy

My first multipitch ever with Joshua! What a sick day out

Just the first pitch...hard move at the start.

Weird last move....not 5 star fun😆

Short, but one of the best I've done at Paarl

Very cool climbing with a sting in the tail.

Flubbed the OS. Got my RP on the second go after MJ stripped the draws

First anchor only has one maillon as fixed gear

Walk off

Ah flip. I thought today would be the day we finally get on this.

Wow, finally done with this thing. The difficulty is multifaceted and not just about the climbing. Skin and conditions are a big factor on this one as well as headspace.

The route is constantly changing - mainly feet continue to break and just get worse. Every time myself or my partner were on this feet holds would crumble and break.

A good description of this route would be 45 meters of straight crimping. Just a few holds are bigger than half pad.

I had to get creative with resting and in the end found quite a few good rests on it - one very good one before the crux.

Grade wise - hard to say. Solid 28 in my opinion

Teaching first timers how to multi pitch

This one has a little sting in the tail
