Nothing like an exposed, proud highball on slick granite to get you going.

got a couple of laps in on this number under headlamp in the dark. Some frogs and a massive tape worm snapping at small insects on the water surface kept us entertained inbetween shots.

V3 | ★★ Dagobah - with Brendan Heywood, Benji Dutaillis | 10m | ★★★ Mega Classic | ||||
Such a good number to bring on the burn. I find this a pretty hard route to flash as a warm-up cause of the intense flash pump. Got it on my 4th attempt and again on the 5th
|
|||||||
V1 | ★★ Yoda's mantle - with Brendan Heywood, Benji Dutaillis | 3m | ★★ Very Good | ||||
A little mantle practice in-between Dagobah runs.
|

V1 | ★★ Yoda's mantle - with Ben Vincent, Benji Dutaillis | 3m | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Through the mantle I felt the slight twinge in my right shoulder still from a week or so ago at the wall
|

V3 | ★★ Dagobah - with Ben Vincent, Benji Dutaillis | 10m | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Post storm humid conditions but we snuck out because its been forever and the covid gut needs to go. Super happy to resend this first go and even happier to do a second lap clean.

And then why not extend that endurance route to include some DWS? ;-)
|
|||||||
V3 | ★★ Dagobah - with Brendan Heywood, Thor Burey | 10m | ★★★ Mega Classic | ||||
Very very high quality. One of those routes that you could do laps on and stil enjoy. Good on the skin and a great one to warm up the body.
|
|||||||
V3 | ★★ Dyno or do not dyno - with Brendan Heywood, Thor Burey | 2m | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Looks a long way but much closer than you expect. Skippy had a great and very unexpected mid-mantle stack.
|
|||||||
★★ The mantle project - with Brendan Heywood, Thor Burey | 1m | ★★ Very Good | |||||
obvious mantle practice and an absolute ab burner
|
|||||||
V5 | ★★★ Swingers Club - with Brendan Heywood, Thor Burey | 5m | ★★★ Mega Classic | ||||
OooWee this is so good. Felt great on this today and got it second go with Benji's new beta. A solid pad base helps the psych and you can't underestimate the barn door potential to send you past and above the pads on this one.

A total low-ball juggy traverse. Why not build some endurance while you're bouldering....?
|
|||||||
V5 | ★★★ Swingers Club - with Ben Vincent, Thor | 5m | ★★★ Mega Classic | ||||
Perfect setup with 6 pads. Had a couple goes and fairly consistently getting to the same high point as before. Ben sent it which ramped up the stoke, I taped up my right ring finger which I think helped. Just managed to keep bumping my left hand as far as possible, got the right toe pulling hard and then just desperately jabbed it up and to my complete surprise stuck it. Woot! I am so super stoked with this send and this route is totally ace

Brutal fun
|
|||||||
V3 | ★★ Baby Yoda - with Ben Vincent, Thor | 6m | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Almost got the flash, one flash pump after another probably isn't the best way to warm up
|
|||||||
V3 | ★★ Dyno or do not dyno - with Ben Vincent, Thor | 2m | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Did the dyno and then had a pretty funny unexpected stack mid mantle
|
|||||||
V3 | ★★ Pan sweater - with Ben Vincent, Thor | 5m | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Such an ace route, first go
|
|||||||
V3 | ★★ Dagobah - with Ben Vincent, Thor | 10m | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Warmup, almost got it first try,flash pump out literally an inch from the last hold. Got it second go

V2 | ★★ Extension start - with Brendan Heywood, Benji Dutaillis | 3m | ★★★ Classic | ||||
Got it. Felt pretty pumpy and slopey first time around but took my time on the second go and it was all there.

V3 | ★★ Dyno or do not dyno - with Brendan Heywood, Benji Dutaillis | 2m | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Looks an age away but is all there.

|||||||
V5 | ★★★ Swingers Club - with Brendan Heywood, Benji Dutaillis | 5m | ★★★ Mega Classic | ||||
Got very close on first attempt. had high feet and hands and simply had to throw for the lip but couldn't take my eyes off my feet for fear of blowing...and then I did a big barn door and fell from the top on to no pads! Totally ninjared it though and didn't even break my ankles. stoked. Had a few more goes with pads better placed but I think my nerves were shot. Benji nailed it and found a key footer which takes away the dodgy barn door. Well done sir.

Aarrh this thing is so good! Got onto the top arete a few times and it just teases you and demands millimetre precision and balance. After about the 3 'one more time' Benji sent it in perfect style and history has been made. We built up a much better log base this time, with 5 pads

Pretty close. Pretty scary. Pretty good so far.

Best experienced without obvious meat-hook jug feature to the left. Crimpers all the way!
|

V5 | ★★★ Swingers Club (barn door project) - with Ben Vincent, Alan Ezzy, Phil | 5m | ★★ Very Good | ||||
This thing is sick! Didn't really seem possible at first but it will go. You can't have too many pads, 5 was ok but I think 8 would be ideal as you aren't quite sure in which direction you'll ping off

Another lap on this great problem

Super pleased to finally get back to this, and happy it wasn't hard as we only had 2 pads. Def got the heart beating, Carol got a bit daunted but got it second go
