Like a duck taking off.. get the momentum up and keep flapping!

All the moves sorted. The last move takes a bit of working out. Keen as to get back for the tick. Any takers for this weekend ??

Hard in the middle crimp section
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Paul Frothy Thomson	Sat 6th Apr 2013
Wow. Amazing climbing despite appearances, and bloody hard for the grade. 3 shots, and all 3 shots (including the onsight) I fell at the last bolt, past all the crux moves and hard climbing, pumped absolutely silly. The middle crimp section is thin and sequency (and HARD!) and the top headwall is weirdly pumpy. The final mantle is scary but kind of cool. I measured this at just over 20m with my rope. Hard for the tick, but worth it.
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Ben Jenga	Sat 27th Jul 2013
Really great 24, super fun. Thin middle crux where climbing quickly is the key then a pumper top on jugs. The top isn't to hard just use your feet.
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Aidan	Thu 25th Jul 2013
Too pumped to get through the roof
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	George Broadfoot	Sun 8th Sep 2013
Cool... very diverse sections of climbing!
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Tim Haasnoot	Sat 22nd Jun 2013
With Pommy, great little warm up for the harder stuff.
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains		Mitch Perkins	Sun 13th Apr 2014
Pure bliss! Fun crux section, jugs to glory with a couple of fun last moves to make sure you don't get complacent!
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Ben Jenga	Mon 21st Apr 2014
Repeat. A quick pumpy lap.
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Rob Medlicott	Sun 18th May 2014
Oh yes! Biggest battle i've ever had on a route. I held on to things way smaller and way longer than i thought i could to get to the top of this. I was so pumped when i clipped the anchor, that both my forearms were in pain! So awesome! First onsight at the grade and i don't believe its an easy 24 either
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Tom Reid	Fri 13th Jun 2014
Over cooked reading the crux on onsight, misleading chalk and ticks.. pulled straight back on but fell off the top as well.. 5 days in a row starting to hurt. Great route though, will do it next time.
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Jason McCarthy	Thu 16th Oct 2014
1st 24 onsight and putting the draws on. So happy. Awesome route. Floated through the first crimpy crux, feet broke free getting the top ledge and easy up from there. Not even that pumped.
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Paul Frothy Thomson	Thu 23rd Oct 2014
In the full sun, after 6hrs of bolting, and straight after coming down from Daffy... I was asking for a spanking and I got it. After faffing about at the lower crux, I backjumped it and went home.
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Vanessa Wills	Wed 10th Dec 2014
Superb 24, got to last bolt and dynoed to a tick mark on the ledge that unfortunately was a footer mark. Had to clean as the big storm hit, was already pretty damp
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Matt Brooks	Fri 12th Dec 2014
Really fantastic route
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Vanessa Wills	Wed 31st Dec 2014
First go today (2). dave kindly put draws on. No easier than first try but at least I knew where to go at top

Well worththebattle
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Ben Jenga	Sun 8th Mar 2015
Such a gold route. Jugs, crimps, steep jugs, funky finish.
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Ben Jenga	Sun 29th Mar 2015
Another lap, placing the draws this time
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Igor Khudoshin	Sun 5th Apr 2015
Super cool but scary insecure midsection resulting in some great whipper, then got pumped by the top.
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck - with Mel M	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Tom Reid	Sun 5th Apr 2015
Followed some troll tick mark at the top, and fell off, while putting the gear on. Second shot no worries, great route!!
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck - with Vanessa	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Rob Medlicott	Sun 26th Apr 2015
Draws on for Vanessa and then another go at a repeat but didn't manage it. Pretty impressed with my onsight last year now

	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck - with Sammi	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	Lee Cujes	Fri 15th May 2015
This was great. Easy, then a crimp crux, then steep jug romping. I figured the top would be hard so I didn't hang around. Turns out it was fine. Standard Crossroads mantle.

	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck - with Vinny	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Ro-boat	Mon 3rd Aug 2015
Yup this one rocks. Mostly long and steep but with a slab crux down low. The mantle at the end definitely caught me off guard.

Worked with rests. Bad sequence in the top cave lead to much excitement.
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains		Jason	Sun 21st Feb 2016
Remember to lean back to find the footholds at the top .

Note to self: the lie down rest up the top isn't worth it... Second shot.

alzheimer's onsight. Got pumped silly on the mantle move before the anchor
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	DS	Sat 11th Jun 2016
Super classic, onsight while putting the draws. The mantle almost killed me, got pump silly trying to do it. Didn't even check the crag about the mantle move and was thinking why is it so hard. Stoked that I got the onsight. ✌

2nd go
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★ Very Good	james ritchie	Sun 16th Oct 2016
Sooooo close on the 2nd shot. Too tired at the end of the day. Next time.

Awesome route! Had a go to work out the moves then went for it with the draws in but fell from just below the mantle. Super varied climbing with a cruxy middle section that is difficult to read. Then the top isjust about staving off the pump which just got the better of me on the 2nd go. On the tough end for 24 maybe?
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck - with Andrew Stevenson	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Roger Austin	Sat 5th Nov 2016
Mantle? What mantle? Lots of other good climbing - the easy bit; the intense bit; the pumpy bit; the mantle-that-wasn't.

another time, with more juice maybe...
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck - with Adrian Kladnig	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Adrian Kladnig	Sat 19th Nov 2016
Had a million rests but the good news is that my A2 pulley is happy. Finally, I can trying something harder than 22!
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck - with Tom Collins	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Adrian Kladnig	Sat 19th Nov 2016
Just past the crux which I now have wired so that Tom could give it a good shot before the Sun hit.

	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains		John Drake	Tue 7th Mar 2017
This was brilliant. A technical crux on the vertical section at 1/3rd height, followed by steep jug haulin'. Did this one-hang, and might be able to get it with some more fitness on the steep stuff.
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck - with Siderunner	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Blue Mountains Orangutan	Thu 23rd Mar 2017
Awesome route, just keeps going after the tricky crux.

Got it 2nd attempt. Would not have happened without the foot jam rest before the anchors.

Pretty extended crux sequence halfway up, with a few different solutions, and some tricky to clip draws thrown in afterwards. Mantle move was fine.
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck - with Amanda	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Blue Mountains Orangutan	Fri 7th Jul 2017
3 shots, really struggle with the top section but at least I've got the crux sorted.

Despite rubbish wet conditions today, it was good to come back to this route (something of a nemesis quite a few years ago) and dispatch it relatively easily today. All the moves are great, and it features quite a few tough sequences at the grade. The thin middle-section was quite the challenge.
	24	★★★ Pluck-a-Duck	Sport 22m, 10	Blue Mountains	★★★ Classic	Ryan Tranter	Sun 19th Nov 2017
Got stuck clipping the draw at the first crux and backed out. Need more endurance for this one.
