Ascents in Australia by Matt Schimke having sport-cpr or ascent-date

Stoked to climb this today, worked out some better beta for the top and then had a great time on the send, feeling in a good zone. Tried hard and came away with the tick! First hard(ish) sport climb in a long while. Climbs way better than it looks (3)

Made the start way harder than it needed to be by going left and missing some obvious holds. Almost botched the start. The top corner feature is great to climb and quite technical.

Happy to onsight this, first day back in the mountains in 6 years! Had to commit to the mono clip and then keep the pump in check for the rest of the route.

Such a great climb. Boulder problem on rope with a fun little outro. (4)

Awesome!! Feels great to tick a hard climb again, its been over four years since I have done this grade. I am climbing unfit, don't have the same headspace for projecting but still managed to work through all the mental battles of projecting and tick this one. Definitely my style of climbing and I love the intricate beta needed to solve the multiple cruxes. Put a locker on the second bolt as Ive had issues with the draw crossroading and even managed to snap a biner with a fall (10).

Some hard to read sections. No chalk which made it an interesting onsight.

Some fun moves. Crumbly rock and seeping near the anchor.

Decided to do the left hand start considering the direct has had a hold break recently, glad I made this choice. Draws on onsight. Classic face climbing with no rest until near the top, and then still some hard moves after that. Happy to squeak in the onsight.

Woohoo! Second ascent, and for sure my hardest climb ever. 20 shots this year, after trying it for a LONG time 4 years ago and giving up. It was great to make a come back on this climb. Did the start nicely, rested well before the scoop, aced the scoop, rested badly and got pumped on the slab and tried really hard to not fall off for the rest. Was kinda close to falling off getting the knee bar clipping anchor in, which would have been heartbreaking. Thanks to Susy, JJ, Nick, Alex, and Lee.

Great steep pulling. Bit much for a warm up but managed to find the right sequence.

Had a great flash attempt and fell slapping for the jug at the end of the crux. This is a superb wall with consistently great movement. (2)

Sharp warmup! Probably a bit much for a warm up.

Awesome little climb, lots of hard climbing packed into a small length. The top is a bit weird but the rest is class. Nice to be rope climbing again.

The top is a bit chossy but pretty good climbing

Nice climbing

I really enjoyed this one. Nice and dry as well. Onsighted up to last bolt and mucked up the sequence. Pretty easily second go (2).

What a climb! Diverse movement and great features

First time placing gear in about 10 years, felt great to re learn the skill. Had a decent onsight attempt but muddled up the top crux sequence. Found a flow moment second shot and climbed it smoothly. Incredible movement with some technical movement. Thanks for the day out Ryan.

Woohoo! Hardest route outside of Coolum. I got some beta to try different kneepads, so did just that and it made all the difference for that shitty knee scum at the crux. Climbed the route direct as Lee did, and glad I did. Just like a lot of the harder routes at Ninderry, they can be a bit contrived so no classic from me. Probably low end 29, but how would I know considering its my first 29 face climb? (9)

Had a decent onsight attempt but missed a crucial finger slot out left which pumped me out. Second go it went smoothly, nothing to hard just continuous technical moves. Very nice route (2).

Cool climb but my skin was not ready for the razor blades. Way too sharp for my baby skin.

Did the crux move a few times and re worked the top moves. Felt like I stood a chance of sending this but my skin just wasn't up to it.

Amazing movement. Tough crux move from a strange slot. Completed all the moves.

Started with second pre clipped.

Great movement: the jug at the crux is a little wobbly and looks at risk of falling off.

Cool climb! Had a good onsight attempt, fell just before shield. Went well on second go although I still need a few more days to get used to steep climbing again and the sharpness of this place (2)

Had a good onsight attempt of the start and damn near got it first go. Legit has a hard move at every single bolt. Could not figure out the last crux from the tooth. That tooth might need some reinforcement as without it I am not sure it'll be climbable.

Some great moves on this!

Nice warm up.

The start two bolts is some of the worst climbing I have ever done. Redeemed slightly by the cool stemming crux. The top is just a test in rock quality reading.

Oh wow, that happened! Second ascent! 85% humidity, and low psych made this a big surprise. Climbed fruit bat again for the first time in maybe 4 years?? for a warm up. JJ psyched me up to give it another go and got it! The crux is so cool. (4)

Love this climb, varied with some great jugs at the top.

Dangerous with ledge fall potential most of the climb. Wouldn't bother.

onsight to second last move, went wrong way and fell. Went smoothly second go. What a climb!

Woohoo! Finally! First started trying this in 2012 and have been falling off the last move multiple times every year since! Been doing a bit of training lately, which helped me get this pretty easily today. Super tired and feeling crappy but still managed to do it fairly in control and got to the anchor feeling surprising OK! No classic from me, as it is contrived, but the rock quality and moves make up for that. Onto Semtex! (20).

Pumpy as a warm up, the sequence isn’t obvious.

Worked out some new beta for the crux move, avoiding some of the small crimpers. It’s on!

Thoroughly enjoyed this little gem. Very unique for Queensland. A few of the bolts are a little hard to clip but apart from that it flows pretty well.

Amazing climbing. Feeling drained today, but managed to 1 hang it from the crimps at the first bolt all the way to the top.

Awesome climbing, some fragile rock which should clean up in time.

Awesome movement, shame about all the ledges.

Top is great as everyone has said. Bottom two bolts are good fun too! Be mindful on the runout after the third.

Two shots today. First one I managed to figure out the crux and work the moves to the top and felt pretty optimistic about the next shot. The following shot I climbed from the ground up until the forth bolt but didn't go for the clip, was madly pumped. Could barely manage to bolt to bolt after this as I was so fatigued haha

Climbs really well! Bit spooky between second and third bolt but you just have to go for it and the fall is fine and it is well bolted. Complicated and confusing crux with a lot of options. (2)

A few shots. Climbed clean from the jug before the crux right through to the end which was encouraging. Don’t know when I’ll get back to finish this one.

Super unique climbing. Second bolt is a little scary to clip, but apart from that its well bolted. Did not figure out crux but I am keen to get back with some new beta. PUMPY!

Damn I need some beta for this one...

Three shots. Refined beta on first. Second attempt was my first attempt from the ground and I was happy to climb straight through to the third bolt and just could not hold onto the shitty pocket long enough to clip that bolt, the clip is definitely a crux move for me.

Third shot I was gassed, pulled up to second bolt and went to the top from there. Not a bad link!

Two more shots figuring out better sequences. All moves done. now to start linking it

First time climbing on real rock in a long time. Had two shots today. Worked out every move but linking will be hard, as every single move leading into Kill Bill is hard and taxing. Keen to put some effort into this one but should probably get a bit more fit firstly
