Four Cracks Wall | ||||||
V3 | ★ 4 | 4m | ★★ Very Good | |||
It felt really good to move through these holds. Fun stuff
|
||||||
V1 | ★ 5 | 4m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Great problem. more thought required than the jug fest of 11
|
||||||
V0 | ★ 6 - The Layback Crack (6) | 4m | ★ Good | |||
Love the lay back! Always good to practise this skill
|
||||||
V0 | ★ 11 - The Juggy Face (11) | 4m | ★ Good | |||
Jugfest! Haulin, Yeehar!
|

A great warm up for the session. Heaps of fun!
|
||||||
V5 | ★★ 6 | 4m | ★★ Very Good | |||

Fun! Lots of good holds and a harder top out than expected
|
||||||
V1 | 2 | 3m | ★ Good | |||

Sun 2nd Nov 2014 - Blues Point | ||||||
Life Aquatic Wall | ||||||
V1 | ★ Get Down Low And Go Go Go! - with Brendon | 6m | ★ Good | |||
Quite core loving at the end trying to keep the feet off the ground.
|
||||||
V1 | Crossing The Void - with Brendon | 5m | Average | |||
Not hugely exciting. I can understand the vision crossing the void, but the sandy nature of this may keep me from doing it again.
|
||||||
V2 | ★ Smell the Roses - with Brendon | 4m | Average | |||
Big holds for the most part. Didn't have to perform a rose to move through this problem, so i'll have to go back and have another turn with one.
|
||||||
V3 | FA ★ Gold Amongst The Grains - with Brendon | 6m | ★ Good | |||
A fun alternate ending to ELAP. Pulling up on that thin crimper is a test of ones nerve.
|
||||||
V4 | ★★ ELAP - with Brendon | 3m | ★★★ Classic | |||
V6 | FA ★ Dislocation Irritation - with Brendon | 7m | ★★ Very Good | |||
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!
|
||||||
V2 | ★ I Can See The Clock But I Don't Know What The Time Is - with Brendon | 12m | ★ Good | |||

|
||||||
V1 | ★ Piked From The Start | 3m | ★★ Very Good | |||
always a fun start!
|
||||||
V2 | ★ Monkey Magic | 3m | ★★★ Classic | |||

Peeking Patch | ||||||
V3 | ★★ Coal Train Blues | 5m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Took three attempts to rework this beautiful. This has one committing side pull on an iron crimp! always lots of fun to send
|
||||||
V6 | ★★★ Pockets of Power | 4m | ★★★ Mega Classic | |||
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!
|
||||||
V3 | ★★ Saved By Ents | 4m | ★★★ Classic | |||
An usual problem for this area. More like Monkey Magic than any other. Slopers and some interesting body moments makes this a must do almost every time I boulder here
|
||||||
Sun 28th Sep 2014 - Tambourine Bay | ||||||
Main Crag | ||||||
16 | ★ Tambourine Dream | 12m | ★ Good | |||
Not worth the star and more of a high 16. Still worth it though.
|
||||||
18 | ★ K3 Variant 1 | 8m | ★★ Very Good | |||
One of the better routes here. Lots of fun. Great moves. Star material
|
||||||
18 | ★★ K3 Variant 2 | 10m | ★★ Very Good | |||

Much better than it looks. Fun low traverse to technical finish. Always a favorite more of a V3.
|
||||||
V2 V3 | ★ Crimp And Save | 3m | ★★ Very Good | |||
This problem still gets me thinking. Contrived but worth it. Best starting move at the crag. More of a V2
|
||||||
V0 | ★★ Perfect Flake | 3m | ★ Good | |||
V3 V4 | ★★ ELAP | 3m | ★★★ Classic | |||
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.
|
||||||
V0 | ★ P By The Sea | 3m | ★ Good | |||
Sun 10th Aug 2014 - East Killara | ||||||
The Promised Land Middle Tier Genesis Right Wing Christianity | ||||||

|
||||||
V1 | ★ Bog on up | ★★ Very Good | ||||

||||||
18 | ★ The Cheerful Giver | 5m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Wow, what a find! A massive thanks to the generosity of the one who bolted this, attempted it and then left it as a open project as they didn't have time. Respect! I have a lot to learn from that ethic.
A surprisingly enjoyable challenge though its so short. Fun moves! |
