hard crux before anchors. Such a good route. Solid for the grade.

Outrageously good

That top boulder is all time! Did with the original beta because it’s rad! Luckily it went pretty quick. I could imagine falling off the top of this one for a while

Blast through easy territory to a great rest then a rad boulder to gain the anchors. Need so much accuracy for the deadpoint to the pocket! Could have gone on the 2nd shot or 200th shot. First send of the season, feeling good!
	27	★★★ Hard Candy - with Justin Pang	Sport 18m	Nowra	★★★ Mega Classic	George Broadfoot	Sat 26th May 2018

cool fun really contrasting sections would be mega classic without the beach half way up
	27	★★★ Hard Candy	Sport 18m	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Ben Jenga	Fri 5th Jun 2015
A Super route that exceeded my expectations. Fun start that keeps you on your toes, a good rest in the sadly sandy middle jugs then buckle up for the top.. A couple big dynos see you through the roofs and on to the reachy, sinker pockets at the top.. Two taster shots, back soon for the rematch..
	27	★★★ Hard Candy	Sport 18m	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Ben Jenga	Sat 24th Jun 2017
Poo, I really thought this would go today in perfect PC conditions but 3 shots fingering the pocket and no tick.
	27	★★★ Hard Candy - with Kate Riordan	Sport 18m	Nowra	★★★ Classic	oliver kerr	Sun 25th Nov 2018
Three solid attempts after putting up the draws. The first ended in a foot slip at the crux, the second I missed the pocket and the third ended with a fizzle after yelling take! Still happy to make progress - it was the first time I've done that move!
	27	★★★ Hard Candy - with Kate Riordan	Sport 18m	Nowra	★★★ Classic	oliver kerr	Mon 27th May 2019
I actually felt strong enough to get it today. Three solid goes each ending with the throw to the pocket. My second go I actually got close to hitting the target but didn't manage to latch it. Off the rope, I was close(ish) to getting it static - pulling right up and snapping up with my left rather than the usual throw.

EOD feeler! This is really cool! Heart breaking finish!
	27	★★★ Hard Candy	Sport 18m	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Maurício Chino	Sun 3rd May 2020
3 burns on it. Amazing route. Happy to do all the moves in the first session. Could only stick the crux move at the end once tho on my last burn.

	27	★★★ Hard Candy	Sport 18m	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Maurício Chino	Sun 10th May 2020
First session trying to red point it. Got a high point and a very good link. Fell after the 4th draw going to the rest before the roof. Send feels far, but getting to the rest gives you a good fighting chance!!
	27	★★★ Hard Candy	Sport 18m	Nowra		Roman	Sun 10th May 2020
2 att. Got all moves bar the big move at top. Really keen to try this again some awesome and engaging climbing even at the start and the finish is quite grand
	27	★★★ Hard Candy - with Luke	Sport 18m	Nowra	★★★ Classic	oliver kerr	Sat 20th Jun 2020
After ticking Meet the G first red point burn, I felt pretty confident this would go down pretty easily. Turns out that move is still low percentage. Two solid attempts - both of which I had the power just not the luck to send.

Awesome. That finish boulder though... Could be tough to link.
	27	★★★ Hard Candy	Sport 18m	Nowra	★★★ Mega Classic	Zac Schofield	Thu 20th Aug 2020
Worked all the moves, hot damn that top boulder is amazing, could definitely tweak a finger/pulley working it though.

With some good beta the top Boulder feels really good.

Really fun climbing, and it all goes together… until the last move! Couldn’t figure it out
	27	★★★ Hard Candy	Sport 18m	Nowra	★★★ Mega Classic	Zac Schofield	Sun 8th May 2022
Everything felt really good, just couldn’t remember my beta for that last move
	27	★★★ Hard Candy - with Ben Hanley	Sport 18m	Nowra		Grace Mackie	Sun 26th Jun 2022
x2, exploratory mission. Turning the lip before the headwall felt very hard...

A Nowra Classic. That top crux move is wicked booyakasha
	27	★★★ Hard Candy	Sport 18m	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Thomas Maxted	Wed 12th Oct 2022
Had my first proper look at this route, I was super intimidated by the thought of the pocket boulder at the top but stuck the move quickly. Cant wait to start going for some links!

Good working burn, last move is saucey. Finger tape required
	27	★★★ Hard Candy	Sport 18m	Nowra		Matt King	Fri 7th Apr 2023
Super tensiony start followed by a mega pouncy finish on good pockets. So cool

Cruised to the last move and fell to pieces again

	27	★★★ Hard Candy — 2 attempts	Sport 18m	Nowra		Matt King	Mon 12th Jun 2023
Warm up and a send burn early this morning, fell coming out of the roof because I didn't quite latch the jug properly. Next time
	27	★★★ Hard Candy - with Tracey Hua	Sport 18m	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Igor Khudoshin	Tue 20th Jun 2023
Tried to link from the ground and managed to get half way before stuffing up beta. Ended up figuring out the final moves using low left hand pocket which made the move to the last pocket quite solid. Feels possible. Very cool hard climbing
	27	★★★ Hard Candy - with Tracey Hua	Sport 18m	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Igor Khudoshin	Mon 3rd Jul 2023
Way too spoogey. Few holds we're wet
	27 ~28	★★★ Hard Candy - with Simmo, Stephen Varney	Sport 18m	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Paul Frothy Thomson	Sat 8th Jul 2023
Amazing climbing. Most of the route gave me no real trouble (the moves around and past the upper roof to the last bolt are awesome!) but the only way I could do the top crux is via the undercling mono (I couldn't use the sharp crimp) and -though I could do it- it just felt dangerously tweaky without some targeted training. One to come back for (with some preparation )

	27	★★★ Hard Candy — 3 attempts	Sport 18m	Nowra		Matt King	Sat 22nd Jul 2023
Missed the last pocket from the ground another couple times. I think if this were at a local I'd keep putting time into it but probably not worth it on trips

Should come back but that pocket boulder at the top 😬 did all moves up until the last albeit with lots of rests

	27	★★★ Hard Candy	Sport 18m	Nowra	★★ Very Good	David Hillard	Fri 1st Nov 2019
Nice climbing up to the last problem, that final move is tricky even in isolation. A fairly unpleasant and very committing sequence. Probably won't jump back on it for a bit.
	27	★★★ Hard Candy	Sport 18m	Nowra		David Barrie	Sun 11th Jun 2023
Couldn't manage that last move, halp.
	27	★★★ Hard Candy	Sport 18m	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Benjamin Korff	Mon 22nd Jul 2019
Lacking the power and core for the crux move at the very end... A bit hard for a warm-up anyhow. Awesome moves though.
	27 ~28	★★★ Hard Candy - with Lucas C, Jason, Magdalena de la Torre, Jason Smith, Jason McCarthy	Sport 18m	Nowra	★★★ Classic	Paul Frothy Thomson	Sun 30th Jun 2019
3 laps. Really funky climbing, with a rad slimper start, and a bloody hard pocketed finale. Linked to the last bolt but never really sorted the final moves of that sequence to the anchors. Bailed from the last bolt in the end.
	27	★★★ Hard Candy	Sport 18m	Nowra	★★ Very Good	Molly	Mon 13th Jun 2022
did most of the moves. awesome pockets at the end! didn't quite make it to the anchor hmm.

Bolt to bolt for the most part just working out beta. Linked all the moves until last draw to anchor. Tried a bunch of stuff but couldn't get anything to stick. Felt impossible
