26 M0 | ★★★ The Way of All Flesh M0 — 2 attempts - with Freya lamont | 22m | ★★★ Mega Classic | ||||
First attempt went well, did all the moves pretty easily and thought it would be just a matter of fighting the pump. That all fell apart on the second shot though, got some mental training to do!

17 | ★★ Surface To Air - with Tim Schofield | 30m | ★★ Very Good | ||||
That start is spicy and seemed to be the hardest part of the climb. Would recommend that you're confident leading at the grade because a fall at the beginning would be no fun. We didn't really observe any risk to the second though, must need some pretty dodgy pro to let that happen.

16 ~14 | ★★ Bat Out Of Hell - with Tim Schofield | 30m | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Very soft and juggy. It's overhung a little bit. Felt like an easy gym climb.
