V3 | ★★★ Beautiful Layback — 4 attempts | 4m | Kura Tāwhiti / Castle Hill Basin | ★★★ Classic | Wed 5th Jul 2023 | ||||

V4 | ★★★ Lung Dyno — 2 attempts | 4m | Kura Tāwhiti / Castle Hill Basin | ★★★ Classic | Wed 5th Jul 2023 | ||||

25 | ★★★ Lollapalooza - with gsmizz | 25m, 9 | Motatapu Valley | Sat 2nd Jul 2022 | |||||
Dry fired right hand at first bulge, punched the rock and came down to bandage bloody fingers.
|
|||||||||
25 | ★★★ Lollapalooza - with gsmizz | 25m, 9 | Motatapu Valley | Sat 2nd Jul 2022 | |||||
Made it to upper roof again but while pumped a bit Gs heel felt really bad. Tried the sequence pumped twice and just lowered. Need to be pretty fresh to send but also warmed up. Hopefully next session and it doesn't become another "Mental as Anything"!
|
|||||||||
25 | ★★★ Lollapalooza - with gsmizz | 25m, 9 | Motatapu Valley | ★★★ Mega Classic | Sun 3rd Jul 2022 | ||||
Had a good rest just before the roof, messed up my beta slightly but still hit the glory jug over the lip and somehow was too pumped to hold it, fell as I was swinging my feet right and got some nice hang time! Power endurance is a must for this thing.
|
|||||||||
27 | ★★ The Good Bastard - with gsmizz | 30m, 10 | Mount Iron | Fri 30th Sep 2022 | |||||
Had to clean off my draws at the start so pulled on to see how far I could get, got the same high point of grabbing the pocket on the bulge and clipping then lost my feet and couldn't grab the left crimper. Not the pumpiest climb but I feel it could creep up on you if you don't rest efficiently.
|
|||||||||
27 | ★★ Free Dive - with gsmizz | 15m, 6 | Hospital Flat | Fri 7th Oct 2022 | |||||
New high point then lost feet again
|
|||||||||
27 | ★★ Free Dive - with gsmizz | 15m, 6 | Hospital Flat | Fri 7th Oct 2022 | |||||

|||||||||
23 | ★★★ Groove Armada - with gsmizz | 29m, 9 | The Chasm | Sat 15th Oct 2022 | |||||
Went for the onsight, gave it everything, came up short. Great climbing, lots of good rests but surely at least 3 sections of hard 23 moves. G went on top rope afterwards to clean and still struggled in a few places!
|
|||||||||
26 | ★★★ The 2.4 Minute Man - with gsmizz | 20m, 8 | Hospital Flat | Thu 20th Oct 2022 | |||||

26 | ★★★ The 2.4 Minute Man - with gsmizz | 20m, 8 | Hospital Flat | Fri 21st Oct 2022 | |||||
Felt ok, sweaty and fell at the same high point. G made me try her beta and it felt better but meant skipping a draw until afterwards.

V5 | ★★ Jump for joy | Kura Tāwhiti / Castle Hill Basin | ★ Good | Fri 12th Dec 2014 | |||||
Not sure if you're meant to top out. I cant see how it would be a V5 without it though. Kept slapping the top sloper then losing feet and falling
|
|||||||||
V4 | ★★★ Think Tank | 3m | Kura Tāwhiti / Castle Hill Basin | ★ Good | Fri 12th Dec 2014 | ||||
Got about half way up it, but feet kept slipping off. this climb is too polished for a hot day, cooler temps needed

V7 | ★★★ #3 | 5m | Luggate Boulders | ★★★ Classic | Fri 8th Oct 2021 | ||||
Had a solid few burns. All moves up to the final crimp. That crimp is a razor 🪒 didn’t want to loose to much skin coming into the weekend.

18 | ★ The Meat in the Middle | 15m, 4 | Hospital Flat | ★ Good | Sun 10th Oct 2021 | ||||

17 | ★ Johnny Walker Wisdom | 22m, 7 | Castledowns | ★ Good | Thu 18th Nov 2021 | ||||
Both of us felt that the crux move wasn't 17 lol. On the rap down, found the hidden hold super far to the right......
|
|||||||||
25 | ★ Roaming Warrior | 20m, 7 | The Chasm | Average | Sat 18th Dec 2021 | ||||
About grade 19 to the crux. Effectively a hard boulder on a rope. No feet, big moves.
|
|||||||||
24 | ★★ Sands of Thyme | 10m, 4 | Bannockburn | ★★ Very Good | Thu 23rd Dec 2021 | ||||

23 | ★★★ Low Voltage | 15m, 7 | Borland Valley | ★★★ Mega Classic | Sun 16th Jan 2022 | ||||
Blew the flash, Pumped out just before the last bolt before the anchor.

|||||||||
23 | ★ Energetic Disassembly | 18m, 5 | Borland Valley | Don't Bother | Mon 7th Feb 2022 | ||||
Not worth the risk. Stupidly bolted.
|
|||||||||
24 | ★★★ Labours Of Love | 15m, 5 | Wharewerawera / Long Beach | ★★★ Classic | Tue 8th Feb 2022 | ||||
Messed up my beta going into the last crux. Instead of moving the crimp to bump up, I crossed over with my right hand, couldn’t make room on the crimp to get right hand up to the smaller crimp before the big move.
|
|||||||||
24 | ★★★ Labours Of Love | 15m, 5 | Wharewerawera / Long Beach | ★★★ Classic | Tue 8th Feb 2022 | ||||
Second redpoint attempt. Climbing through the crux, foot popped. Have to come back to Dunedin for a day to send this…
|
|||||||||
20 | ★ Mum's on the Run | 14m, 3 | Hospital Flat | ★★ Very Good | Sat 16th Apr 2022 | ||||

V7 | ★★★ French Kiss | 4m | Elephant Rocks Bouldering | ★★★ Classic | Mon 2nd May 2022 | ||||
Not enough skin or rubber…

21 Hard | ★★ Leap of Faith | 18m, 2 | Wharewerawera / Long Beach | Wed 14th Dec 2022 | |||||
Being wanting to try this for a while, but always a bit intimidated by the last pieces of gear to the bolt. Committed to the Onsight, got through the first crux traversing onto the hanging face, fell pulling through the crux. Those pockets are shallow and non existent 😂

24 | ★★★ Labours Of Love — 2 attempts | 15m, 5 | Wharewerawera / Long Beach | ★★★ Classic | Tue 7th Mar 2023 | ||||
Fell off at the red-point crux again… few days rest and should be good for the send.
|
|||||||||
24 | ★★★ Dave's Arete | Paynes Ford | ★★★ Mega Classic | Wed 12th Feb 2014 | |||||
Had a quick go since Jed put the draws on. Crux start leads into pretty easy climbing (no harder than 20), but sustained with no really good rests. Perfect for gym climbers, unless they don't like taking whippers! Great fall
