15 16 | ★ Dirty Old Men - with Alex Popinga | 21m, 8 | Pōhara | ★ Good | Wed 2nd Oct 2019 | |||
Warm up. Did the left pull up through the bulge which seems harder than the grade. Also a bolt to the right which looks a lot easier. Might have clipped the Dolomite Dreams anchor, but no big difference as the top is easy.

15 | E-Grade Get a Real Grading System - with Alex Popinga | 10m, 4 | Waipari | Wed 15th Dec 2021 | ||||
When climbing on a new wall why not start with the easiest route? Because it is super slimy and polished and feels way harder than it’s grade when it is wet. Slabs don’t dry as fast!

Warm up. Aiden had never belayed before or used a grigri, so I sat back on the rope at the second bolt to make sure he understood how it would feel when I was weighting the rope.
