등정들 Te Waipounamu / The South Island에서 스포츠 클라이밍로서 Chris Hailey에 의한

bit short but cool steep moves

tried this one a life time ago, felt good today but average climbing compared to the rest and too short

really nice climbing, quite powerful and the top is really nice

Soggy Biscuits for 25 but a really great line with some effort needed to get over the lip... beware the slab run out 😂

Really good line, didnt even need to hand jam the sharp crack

Took 5 gos in all, should have been 2 or 3. Butchered the last move being powered out 😂

3rd go should have been 2nd. Fingers freezing up and bicep cramps are a good excuse right? Other than the cold Connies this line is one of the best 25s Ive done in NZ had to battle for it at the end of the long day!!! Mint line, would recommend to techy face climbers!!!

Hmm not sure if I hate this route or like it yet... really weird awkward crux, bit chossy. Should go tomorrow.

Cant believe I dropped the last move on the onsight 😂 absolute punter missed the good undercling and went to a bad one 🤦‍♂️ ah well... second go #soft

dogged at the end of the day to check out the moves, felt as hard as bolts... maybe I was tired. the start is a real let down.

imagine this was a classic... holds gone but thats fine, crimps made out of glue 😂 like climbing on porcelain. would go with a bit of work, might jump back on tomorrow

Great outing, used to feel hard, today felt easy 🤷‍♂️ excellent moves

Good climb, bouldery with some powerful then tricky moves

Broken holds in the crux made this one harder, warming up so didn’t put much effort into it

Warm up

Laps for fun

Laps for fun

warming up

Morning warm up, got spanked by this one before the rest day and it still felt hard for 25... The bulge on the limit of the grade for me but maybe it just didn't suit my style. used more feet under the bulge this time which felt more stable. could be 26... but its probably in line with the other 25s here just not as pumpy. Going over the final lip was great doing a high right foot into a pinch then easy to the anchors. Rad but hard.

come on dude!!! Its so close... one more rest day then 2 days to send before I need to go home. Climbed through the bottom crux, one hang then to the top...

First time Ive ever warmed up on a 27 😂 bottom boulder problem was a bit hard being cold and I did some horrendous slip and ended up hanging off a jug one armed but kept it together for another classic lap... couldn't feel my feet it was so cold though 😂

4th day on, nothing left in the tank to get this one... felt really hard over the bulge for the grade but once id found the holds was just about foot placement... tick this for the warm up tomorrow after this much needed rest day 😂

dealing the top section, have made it from the bottom of the crux to the top in one push... just need conditions and a rest... so close

3rd go after 4 days of climbing... could have flashed or got it second go for sure if I was fresh but at the end of the day a classic 27 in 3 gos means I must be improving... styled it too... felt easy.

#2nd go... probably the best 25 at little Babylon so far

Nice route

4th day working, battling the spray on them crimps, have made it through the crux to the top just need to link from the ground.

Yep... pumpiest 25 I’ve ever climbed... 4th go. Felt 26 but I def skipped some moves haha

Great link up, prob the softest 25 but still managed to slip off the last hold clipping the chains on the first go... I blame the sun haha

Bottom Crux is pure choss second part is mega classic.... Maybe I’ll like it when I send it... 2 gos and got it on a 2 hang

Dropped the last move like a Gumby warming up lol sent 2nd go

Looks like a council estate climbs like a moon board!! Mint made all the moves in 40 mins send it this week? Probably not haha

Can’t believe I dropped the flash of this one, rain coming in sideways made the sloper wet and slipped off... bummer... next go

2nd go... incredible route!!!

Conditions turned to custard, 34 degrees, soapy and I was burnt from yesterday. Disappointed to drop the last move after it felt so easy on the want up. Next trip... f**k

Just as we were walking out we looked at this and knew it needs to be worked out haha wrecked from a day of working rubble, made all the moves and some good links will go. Time to rest for tomorrow’s attemps

Can’t believe I didn’t send this today, every move felt easier than last time, route felt good to go just didn’t have the beta dialed till the end of the day. Fell twice on the last move forgetting the heel... tomorrow is the day lol

nice route

great route, darkness crept in before I could send. then the rain descended... next time

noice, great climbing

excellent climbing, top was wet so watch out if its been raining lol

nice climbing

should have flashed it, mental game was not on that morning... second attempt. Sick route

nice easy slab

epic route, took 30 mins to work the moves out in the powerful bottom section then just as I was about to jump on torrential rain came in... sandy left without the send but Ill be back to get it

excellent route, over hanging on big holds, did this one in the rain with wet crux holds. Soft for 24 but I am tall... I also feel the tallness was negated by the wetness of the small hold left and final jug lol... Either way it was a classic route!!!

Nice route, cruisey moves

nice route, bit run out

Worked the Route twice then went for the snd... fell 2cm short of the finish jug haha... Ill get it on the next trip, great route
