Ascents as boulder by Paul Frothy Thomson having Distinct route

Basically the same as All Nighter... but with a few metres of powerful steep sloper traversing to make the highball crux on All Nighter even more exciting.

Tricky to get established on the slab, then easier tricky slabbing up PEBBLES! V3, maybe? I cant grade these sorts of boulders. Fun.

Exciting.

Not particularly hard, but heaps of fun. I found the top-out kind of scary, and the mossy/dirty finishing holds almost did my head in. Or maybe I'm just soft.

Cool! Considering the huge gallery of climbers working this problem, it was pretty cool just to walk up and flash it... but it totally suited me. Slightly steep face climbing on thin, spaced crimps and shallow pockets. Fun.

Felt 5.11b/c (V1ish?) to me. Bomber ringlocks on a slightly steep face and through a bulge on a highball boulder above a hideous landing (and I had no spotter!)... Like I was ever gonna fall! Did 2 x laps in the rain for a laugh.

2nd shot. Hard V3/Soft V4? Rad little boulder with a few powerful moves on funky holds up a crack feature.

There are harder V3s here than this.

Fumbled around a bit at the start.

An unlikely line! Pretty good for low grade sydney bouldering. Soft as for a V4. A bit dubious of calling this a tick, as the palm of my hand ended up brushing the side of the carrot bolt as i mantled over, and though i dont think it helped the send, like a chalk bag dab its a bit dubious in the ethics department.

Done with the sit start, which makes it harder due to your body being out of position for the crux moves, but still soft as for a V4. Funky climbing made great by the novelty topout. I rebirthed and unbirthed myself a few times on the Send for a laugh.

Not too bad and not too hard. Still took me a few goes, though. The topout is fun.

As soft as they come. The slab was pleasant though. Oozing up blankness.

Entertaining. The JengA solved the start move for us tallies, and it went easy from there. Grotty mantle finish.

A really nice boulder problem. Took quite a few goes to put it all together. Exciting topout if you don't use the sidepull at the rail.

Finally. After quite a few shots today I managed to stick the last move of this complex crimp-sequence boulder... and yes, the foot-dyno is still crucial to my beta.

2nd shot today. Cruised it, feeling strong right to the end... embrace the sloper!

2nd shot. Similar to Beef Tumor Left, but with a harder and more shouldery iron-cross move through the roof. Another great one.

A bunch more shots today before sendage. A heel hook to stabilise after sticking the heinous sloper and going for the mini-crimp match was the key. Great powerful climbing.

Took a few more shots, but this one finally went down. Changed the dyno to a deadpoint with the help of a sketchy square-heal (that popped off 75% of the time), and sent this short powerful steep number packing.

Fun and a bit desperate, but pretty soft for the grade.

My left knee is still bruised and tornup, but it was worth the effort. A Powerful and steep bouldery start (featuring the knee-ripper knee-bar) leaves you at the flakes that start the V3 version of this problem... but now you're pumped. Awesome bouldery bouldering.

2nd shot. Should've been a flash, but I managed to fall off the jug at the top of the boulder. Cruised it 2nd shot. Then did it clean 3 MORE times for training. An aesthetic line of pockets, crimps and monos up a steep, arcing boulder.

Hiding from the rain in the kindergarten cave... An enduro V4? That sounds like the only type of V4 I could tick these days. Lots of moves, none hard. Slopey.

Linked from the crimp and the pocket out left to the finish jug (via the other crimps) but havent worked out the huge move out left to gain the pocket. Cool. Short. Sharp.

2 shots. Fell off with my right hand on the finishing jug on the first. Ripped skin from the pocket on my 2nd and went home.

Couldn't stick the last hard move to the slopers. After a few goes working the top section... I then couldn't stick the opening moves anymore as finger strength vanished rapidly. Tough, but intriguing.

Tricky. So very close.

I still can't campus... Can't hold the swing as I move out right.

Putting this painful crimpy number together. Not quite there yet, but making progress.

Very tall and very proud, with the V4 crux move being the last move to the lip. I climbed up twice to the crimps below the crux, but couldnt make myself commit. Scary. Awesome steep climbing to get to the crux though.
