First climb of the day. I always struggle to adjust to the style at Waipapa. Cool route, was scared in places.

Really cool moves. Very 3d. Bit of a scarey mantle near the top.

I had a good go on a first attempt with multiple falls, but i could get the all beta. Need to be fresh for this route. Had two big wip, fun and safe!
	25	★★ Trippa Snippa — 2 attempts	Sport 15m, 5	★★ Very Good	Thibaut
So many hard moves, definitely possible to fall at multiple spots. The red point will be a fight for sure. Cool hand jam at 4th bolt. The kind of routes that only grants you one good go per session.

Another hidden gem that deserves to see more traffic. Bouldery climb that offers welcome respite from the usual techy Waipapa climbing. Grade is spot on. #2ndGo

Thought I was on Honey Bee (18), absurd route finding error. Techy 23-24 climbing up to 4th bolt where a blank face with shallow pockets awaits. A bit hard for a warmup…

Technical start leads to glorious laybacking all the way up to the chains. Loved this one!

Pretty easy climbing up to a mantle at the top. 19 feels pretty generous, by local standards.

Can't do the mantle, long back works against me. Finished up lay back. Again. Bah.
	17	★ Lay Back and Enjoy It - with Alex	Sport 12m, 6	★ Good	John Pitcairn
First 3 draws on. Slipped at crux. Think 18 is probably right when dirty. Scrubbed it a bit on the way down.

Cool looking climb. Second half is fun climbing on big flat holds, quite different than others in the area. Bottom section extremely mossy and slippery, beware.

I agree with the regrade to 19. It had previously been listed as 17. I tried it as a first climb warm up. Not good for an easy warm up.

Very greasy down low, slipped off after traverse, lowered, pulled the rope and re-climbed. Top is nice. Surprised a large rat at the belay toitoi.
	21	★★ Tick Tick Tickety Tick	Sport 12m, 7	★★ Very Good	John Pitcairn
Another go with draws on, one fall at the crux. Definitely coming back for this.
	19	★ Kindergarden Kop - with Travis	Sport 12m, 7	Average	John Pitcairn
Couldn't do the mantle, which is pretty hideous. Had about 8 attempts, downclimbing after each. Ran out of steam and escaped right up Lay Back instead, grading for that. Current Freeclimb guide says 17 but that would be quite a sandbag.
	21	★★ Tick Tick Tickety Tick - with Travis	Sport 12m, 7	★★ Very Good	John Pitcairn
Definitely harder than it looks, but I really liked it. Quite technical for a lot of the way. Had a few attempts working out the crux, avoided stepping into Lay Back at the top.
	17	★ Lay Back and Enjoy It - with Travis	Sport 12m, 6	★ Good	John Pitcairn
Got the layback foot sequence wrong, made clipping very barn doory. Good fun. Current guide says 18 but I reckon not.

Quite a difficult scary feeling mantle, took a few attempts to get that. No falls but a rest below the mantle. Maybe more of an 18, though that mantle is quite difficult
	18 17	★ Lay Back and Enjoy It	Sport 12m, 6	★ Good	Sam Lancaster
Warm up climb. Had a fall peeling off the crux move. Should have gone down and reclimbed from bottom but was too lazy. Bit dirty, need to bring a brush next time.

Balancy start, neato face climbing thereafter. The feature on the upper face resembles a bee if you have good drugs.
