Ascents in Sydney Metropolitan as various tick types by Ranger Dave

ohhh yea!!! such an awesome problem! I managed to stick the third pocket on my second attempt today but the sucker was full of grit! definitely needs more traffic. After a clean up top and in the pocket it only took 3 more attempts. Super fun challenging problem!

FINALLY!!! After 8months working it and some 30-40 attempts, I've cracked it! A super awesome climb. Dedicated finger work, a powerful dyno and some swift foot movements to keep you going. This solid pump of a climb is hard and yet beautifully satisfying!

Awesome, sustained climbing! the Slapping is tough, leaving you feeling like your right on the edge of popping! A Great Line!

An Amazing problem with a beautiful line. Excellent moves up to the ledge and then a committing and powerful throw out to the left - almost a Dyno but I have long arms

A brilliant problem capped off with a killer topout!

A grand vision from Matt Short. Its enough of a challenge to get from that sharp letter box to the ledge, so it certainly keeps the pump going to continue power through to the end of the wall. committing, burly fest!

Awesome Problem with powerful start! classic in my books

So much FUN! Such a kool problem that is really geared for those with a long reach. My hat goes off to the tough nuts with short arms to nail this one. Did someone say Dyno?

awesome arete problem! a tricky start with a continuous grade mostly from the pump. tried throwing for a bigger hold near the top... almost regretted it.

Very Good Geoffro! A Really Fun, Powerful problem with all the satisfying parts of a overhanging traverse that is caped with a fun topout. Excellent!

Used this to warm up. some awesome moves along this line, but I'm wondering if it is slightly soft for a V5. Perhaps its my body type

Absolute crag classic! A super amazing Dyno up to the ledge. I love the feeling of sticking this hold, while my whole body flies off the face.

But it didn't end there - a Massive deadpoint and then a heart pounding topout

Dramatic? check it out for your self!

A exceptional problem!

Always a massive pleasure. An excellent sit start and a committing rounded scoop.

Bam! It's grand to be long. Delicate crimps and then a deadpoint to the top

Love the sloping pockets.

very nice! Having the sit start add a few more beautiful moves to this amazing climb. Didn't think it could get better!

FINALLY! WOOOHOO! got it! After 14 weeks of challenging this climb it is finally mine

tick? Yes please!

Awesome Moves! Super Sustained with a great start that leaves you fighting the pain to finish it off. I really love the moves on this one!

WOW! A super powerful move. Epic deadpoint up to the pig nose! It took me a fair few attempts but I finally got it! An Amazing problem!!

Sweet!!! so glad to have finally got this one. Awesome moves up the crimps followed by a tough mid section and then... deep, deep, deep into the belly of the whale! good stuff!

An absolutely amazing problem. Heaps of power at the start and then some really subtle moves through the middle. The end is a few grades down but after what you get through its a relief!

Yeah!! With some awesome back up and from getting some more ideas from the lads, this one is finally worked. Really kool moves working from a reliance on the right arete to following the balancey left line. Fun with lots of movements

An Epic Problem, with each move accumulating up to bloody committing top out! It was great working this one with Matt and Jake.

Have good spotters!

After several attempts working the crux. Awesome moves heading left on sloppers and round side pulls, finished by a slap happy move to the horn. Awesome climbing

Quite a solid, powerful start followed by more of a V2 highball. Used a undercling to FA the original problem, But alas it was broken off. I will have to go back and get the new start using that gross finger pocket

Great challenge using the slopers

If love where a climb this would be it...

Swooning? What!? sure... you caught me!

A very nice problem! satisfying slap to the arete from the starting moves. The key is staying right on the arete - not to far either way keeps the grade solid.

Very easy V4 for a 6ft climber. Nice commitment none the less

It's amazing what beta can do for a project. Matt nailed this and after watching him I got it quickly. Powerful problem with potential for a super cool dyno.

A super powerful start. Great moves up the center of this over hang. This would be more like a V5 if the chossy hold at the lower left of the cave mouth wasn't used.

like a old friend! Excellent climbing. Challenging to work and super satisfying to push through the balance, laybacking crux

It took a few attempts to grunt my way through this one. Powerful and slightly desperate

Argh! didn't read this problem correctly and popped near the top on the onsight

A fantastic problem with some excellent moves. Perhaps a bit soft for the grade. Sent on the third attempt

A awesome problem. Really reachy on little slots. Started same as 7 - super funky sit start. A worthy send

Its so good that this scoop still spits me out. Got it on the third attempt. Crag icon for sure

Always a pleasure. Whethere its due to doing this problem several times, or more of a correct grade, but I'm feeling like this is more of a V3.

I can never get enough of this brilliant problem!

delicate and balancing, but short

I can see all the moves. Just need the strength to link them

These moves are so natural now Stoked!

A pleasure every time! not quite warming up on Bruce Lee, but getting close

smooth as silk. Wondering if i over graded this...

Need Traffic!!!

my reach made this a lot easier than it might be for others. Great moves!

An Excellent problem. Stoked for the onsight. worth repeating

Yeah! A thorough clean of the top does the trick. Great moves up the middle to a reasonably ballsy topout

big holds - perfect for big arms. I felt that the top out is where the challenge is.

My personal Favorite on this wall. I Love that feeling of sticking the last hold. First ascent had me cut lose at this move, but now I have it under control

Excellent! 3 and a half weeks have paid off. The answers where there all along. This is definitely a new favorite

WOW! what a solid traverse. You have to battle with some sand and dodgy holds, but this is super worth it! Good rests when you need them and a nice array of moves.

Definitely a favorite! powerful start and plenty of options to move the body weight around. argh! the arms were tired during this one. satisfying finish

WOW! Awesome, Difficult, Fun climbing! tough moves up the Arete with some excellent balance required! A super Satisfying finish! Will certainly do it again!

Awww Sugar!!! Its a sweet feeling to high that scoop and hold it. It seems like there is nothing a good scrubbing can't do for a hold!

You have to go deep for this one!

With holds cleaned this was a good send. A powerful start with a thought provoking finish. A bit of a slap and a ticket at the top got me out alright
