Got really pussed off when i broke off a ticked up crimp, after onsighting all the hard stuff and taking to the sky! Those first couple bolts are pretty hard in less than perfect conditions but i had no drama on the second burn. Aside from that hold, the rock is good and the climbing is fun. Took some good footage and pics from the anchor too.

2nd shot. First was a retro flash attempt, and I fell off with my fingers on the end-of-crux finger jug. With the beta refined, the 2nd shot felt tough but solid, and I'm happy to finally get around to ticking this obscure nemesis. Super-sustained techy face climbing leads to a substantially harder shut-down crux. I solved the crux with some tricky footwork that made it balancy, but not powerful. The challenge to working this route is the knowledge that you have to battle the bottom 18m again

2nd shot today, 3rd in total. The first shot today was a throwaway with epic flash pump and trying to remember the tricky footwork. The 2nd shot was still a bit of a battle, but I felt solid the whole way. Probably the least-climbed line on Bentrovato wall, but actually something of a unique gem with non-existent feet and tricky movement. The last move of Kizashi could be a heart-breaker if you haven't got it dialled.

3rd shot, and I had to work for it! Hmmm, hard to grade... Very hard 25, softish 26? Neil is right with "harder than Kizashi but easier than Sadomastication". Probably more sustained and strenuous than Sado, but -despite having 2 HARD moves- without Sado's particularly hard crux. Totally worthwhile and demanding thinness, with lots of funky sidepulls and very high feet.

3rd shot. Onsight ended at the dyno (took me a bit to figure it out: stop trying to be tricky, and just face-on LAUNCH) then clean to the top. 2nd shot I muffed the dyno by completely missing it for no reason. 3rd shot it was all on to the top. Mostly a hardish 22 but for the pretty full-on dyno move. Consistently awesome climbing with interesting moves all the way to the top, 30m up. Probably deserves another star, neilio.

2nd shot today (9th shot total, over about 2 years). Almost did it first shot today putting up the draws (and not remembering the moves) but balked a 1/2 move from the end-of-crux jug and jumped off. Went easily (and awesomely) 2nd shot. A stunning climb, unlike anything else in the Blueys. No Pronounced crux, just getting continuously harder, more technical and body-position dependent all the way to the 2nd last bolt, with a tough final heartbreaker move. One of my favourites.

3rd shot. Wow, embarrassing! I sandbagged myself with some stupid beta making the crux about 2 grades harder, until Neil showed up, slapped me into shape (with the RIGHT beta), and I cruised it on the 3rd shot. Not a bad climb at all, but far from the best to be found on this wall. I definately enjoyed it more once the crux was at a more feasible grade. Made a good warm-up.

2nd shot. It shouldn't have taken me 2 shots, but I guess I'm just crap. After the first shot I came back down, untied, pulled rope, and went straight back up and walked up the climb easily. Probably soft at the grade, but definately harder if you're short. 2 distinctly cruxy sections in very differing styles, with an easy 19ish top half. I like this climb, I think it's probably under-rated.

2nd shot. Happy with this tick, 42m is a long way. I'd heard this hadn't been onsighted, so I gave it everything (with no chalk or wear on the holds, and only the bolts to guide my wandery way) but couldn't get through all the tricky sequences to send. A tad sandy, a bit brittle, a bit old-school. But a truly awesome route IN THE STYLE. If this was 2-pitches, I wouldn't bother. But 1 x 42m pitch is inspiring. A few 23-ish moves, with sustained climbing but separated by good jugs to rest on.

Really good, and with no chalk (and moss) on everything, it was a pure onsight. The tricky move at the second bolt got me on the flash (warm-up) attempt. Lowered off and climbed clean to the top. More cruxy, but not as hard as the climb next to it. I'd even say borderline 22-ish until you're past the roof. We walk past this all the time on the way down sublime, why doesn't it get more traffic???

2nd shot today. 3rd shot total. Pretty happy to get this one. Huge sentry-box roof to some bouldery moves, to a committing and desparate move to get your left foot on the wall, then 21/22 to the top (with 2 more hard bits). Don't even try and clip the crux draw, just keep climbing (you won't hit anything if you fall). I kept my promise to come back to this one, JengA.

Got this second shot after falling 3 moves from the top on my first try due to stupid body possition

First shot today. Fell of this about a year ago so it was good to clean it up. A really fun climb

Second shot. Used the crap out of that tree, I feel a little guilty! Otherwise, great moves all the way to the top, great climbing!

Pretty good, though some dubious rock (near the start, mostly) spoils it a bit. Should have been an onsight, but I didn't realise you're supposed to use the arete between the last two bolts, and I tried to go straight up the face... Bloody hard for a 22! Gave it another lap for the tick. Sustained, though not too cruxy.

Glad to clear up this old dog. The one cruxy move still took me a few attempts before I committed (climb up... climb down... climb up... etc), but everything else went easily enough. Probably has the hardest single move on this end of the wall.

One fall at the second bolt on my onsight attempt, then clean to the top placing draws. Went easily on repeat. Nails hard start leads to great climbing with a huge range of moves and well spaced bolts. Some of the rock is a bit dubious, but who cares with exposure like this. Get on it!
