The Inner Circle The Fun Parlour | ||||||
V6/7 | ★★ Arc | ★★ Very Good | ||||
I made good progress today, but I would like a spotter before committing to the final crux moves, which put me in some compromised positions.
|
||||||
V2 | ★ Present Tense Stand | ★ Good | ||||
V1 | Not Very Good | |||||
V0- | Uncle Slabbers | |||||
V3 | ★ Uncle Slabbers Variant | ★ Good | ||||
Easy flash.
|

V0 | ★ Slip Toe Ridge | |||||
V0 | ★ Granulate | |||||
V4 | ★ Shorty | ★ Good | ||||
Interesting sit-start on this short problem, difficulty is pretty sustained throughout.

V2 | ★★ Round Up the Glyphosate Defenders - with Caleb Quadrio | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Great dyno!
|
||||||
V1 | ★ GMO - with Caleb Quadrio | ★ Good | ||||
An interesting looking feature that is fun to climb, even if it is a bit crumbley.
|
||||||
V3 | ★★ Gentrification - with Caleb Quadrio | ★★ Very Good | ||||
The very high starting gastons aren'too bad, but fighting the barn door is what makes it hard.
Shoulder was feeling too tweaky to continue with attempts.
|
||||||
V0 ~V1 | ★ City Wok - with Caleb Quadrio | ★ Good | ||||
Crumbley, choosy, goodness.
|
||||||
Sun 26th May 2024 - Harvey’s Marbles | ||||||
The Inner Circle The Embankment | ||||||
V2 Hard | ★ Weighting Gains - with Caleb Quadrio | ★ Good | ||||
Tweaked my shoulder on my first attempt, but still managed to get the send. Would be a lot easier for taller people.
|
||||||
V5 | ★ Weighting Gains Variant - with Caleb Quadrio | ★ Good | ||||
Enjoyable, even with a tweaked shoulder. I just wish it had a few more moves.
|

The Inner Circle The Fun Parlour | ||||||
V3 | Slip Slop Slap - with Caleb Quadrio | |||||
Struggling to fit my fingers in the sharp slot, I keep cutting the back of my fingers when I try.
|
||||||
V7 | ★ Subtle Manipulation - with Caleb Quadrio | ★ Good | ||||
If you can't grab the insanely small micro crimp, don't even bother.
|
||||||
V1 | ★ Deception - with Caleb Quadrio | ★ Good | ||||
Great high slab, easy climbing.
|
||||||
V6/7 | ★★ Arc - with Caleb Quadrio | ★★ Very Good | ||||
About halfway through the crux, one or two more moves, and we should unlock the send.
|
||||||
V2 | ★★★ Fall From Grace - with Caleb Quadrio | ★★★ Classic | ||||
Such a classic.

The Inner Circle The Lower Terrace | ||||||
V3 | Meat Mincer - with Madoc Sheehan | Don't Bother | ||||
The big flake is extremely loose, feels like it could blow at any moment. A tree is growing in front of the problem, which makes it almost impossible to climb properly.
|
||||||
V4 | Meatabix - with Madoc Sheehan | Average | ||||
Terrible landing and hard to pad safely. I'm also too short to jump to the thin crimp from the designated starting position, searching for alternative beta.
|
||||||
V4 | ★★ Bungalo Bill - with Madoc Sheehan | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Absolutely terrible sloper, and super reachy. Much better suited to taller climbers.
Real good quality rock, though.
|
||||||
V2 | ★★ No Left Turn - with Madoc Sheehan | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Great traverse with a not so great landing, but still manageable.
|
||||||
V0 | ★ No Right Turn - with Madoc Sheehan | ★ Good | ||||
An okay variation.
|
||||||
V0 | Shorty - with Madoc Sheehan | |||||
V1 | ★ Stu's Grunt - with Madoc Sheehan | ★ Good | ||||
V3 | ★ Coarse & Buggy - with Madoc Sheehan | ★ Good | ||||
Fun slabby arete.
|
||||||
V2 | ★★ Keep Left - with Madoc Sheehan | ★★ Very Good | ||||
V0 | ★★★ Porky - with Madoc Sheehan | ★★★ Classic | ||||
Super enjoyable.
|
||||||
V1 | ★★★ Floating - with Madoc Sheehan | ★★★ Classic | ||||
Super cool floaty dynamic move.
|
||||||
V0 | ★ The Fork - with Madoc Sheehan | ★ Good | ||||
Simple and fun.
|
||||||
V2 | ★ Wake Up Call - with Madoc Sheehan | ★★ Very Good | ||||
High holds make for a reachy start. Once you establish on the nasty crimp, the enjoyable dyno leads to juggy goodness.
|

The Inner Circle The Castle | ||||||
V1 | ★★ Feet and Knuckles | 6m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Big highball with good holds throughout. More of a head-game than anything else.

Beautiful V0 highball with a no-fall finish.
|
||||||

No-fall crack traverse.
|
||||||
V6 | ★★ Collateral Damage - with Jack Van Hees, Glen Hayford, Madoc Sheehan, steve baskerville, Jarrah | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Beta given by Steve Baskerville himself, great climb with a tough finish.

This problem really lives up to its name. No send for me today, but I was super stoked to support Adrian Corvino while he picked up his second V5 during his short visit. 😃

V3 | ★★★ False Pretences LH Variant - with Caleb Quadrio, Madoc Sheehan | ★★★ Classic | ||||
A great variation to "False Pretences" pointed out by Madoc. A great way to try out the finishing movers on "Schlappy"
|
||||||
V3 | ★★★ False Pretences - with Caleb Quadrio, Madoc Sheehan | ★★★ Mega Classic | ||||
A big thanks to Madoc for pointing out this climb because it's absolutely fantastic, it also has the best pocket hold I have ever felt.
|
||||||
V | ★★★ Tree star classic - with Caleb Quadrio, Madoc Sheehan | ★★★ Classic | ||||
Not sure what is funnier, the fact this climb even exists or that we couldn't climb it because it's ridiculously hard 🤣
|
||||||
V4 | ★★ My Girlfriends Got a New Girlfriend - with Caleb Quadrio, Madoc Sheehan | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Slappy goodness 😁

V9 | ★★★ Engineered Scare Tactics - with Glen Hayford, Christopher Glastonbury, Jarrah, Max O'Connor | ★★★ Mega Classic | ||||
Super surprised at my progress today, made it halfway up the overhung face to the beginning of the high crux. I was super inspired watching Chris pick up the 3rd ascent, I can't wait to get back on this crazy piece of rock.

Mostly just dicking about and having a laugh, keen to give this a propper try at some point.
|

WTF? We just could not figure out this sit-start.
Super gritty rock.
|

Super thin feet on this one, close to sending but missing some high holds at the moment.
|
||||||
V0 | ★★★ Elegance - with Aaron Zealey | ★★★ Classic | ||||
Great climb movement on a beautiful arete and a high top-out requiring focus.
|
||||||
V4 | ★★ Mike Delta X-Ray Variant - with Aaron Zealey | |||||
Came so close to sending, need to find a high hold to exit the mantle.
|
||||||
V6 | ★★ Mike Delta X-Ray - with Aaron Zealey | |||||
I can hang the Slopers no problem, but chose to work the easier version today until we figure everything out.

Very enjoyable slab, not super challenging, but focus is required.
|

V0 | Tangerine Tornado - with Aaron Zealey | Average | ||||
V3 ~V2 | Screaming Carrot Demon - with Aaron Zealey | Average | ||||
Generous grade, fun to climb though.
|

V2 ~V1 | AA Battery - with Aaron Zealey | Average | ||||
Probably needs a downgrade, I will get a few other people on it first to try it out first before making a decision.
|
||||||
V5 | ★★ Blood SS - with Aaron Zealey | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Very tricky Sit-start, a few hard moves, then an easy top.

Fun traverse
|
||||||
V7 | ★★★ The Norwegian Way - with Jack Van Hees | ★★★ Classic | ||||
I stuck the move! At only 168cm tall, for me , this move is a 3 points off dyno. The only thing stopping me from sending is a gash on my left heel that makes the next move too painful. I'm super stoked with todays effort, I'm so close I can freaking taste it.

V4 | ★★ Poached Variant - with Jack Van Hees | ★★ Very Good | ||||
V2 | Sauté - with Jack Van Hees | Average | ||||
V3 ~V4 | Fermenter - with Jack Van Hees | ★ Good | ||||
Very tricky slab with very tiny feet and a nest of bull ants half-way up the problem next to a crucial hold. As a shorter climber, it felt more in the V4 range.
