Hi!

We're a quarter of the way through the year, which means it's time to submit your quarterly reviews! By using analysis and statistics we can have more fun!

These reviews should include a list of all of your climbing club related

Successes
Training techniques
Improved Aims
Set backs


Sport routes-0 of 7- sportland trip anyone?
Alpine routes-0 of 7- tricky to get a long enough trip with good enough weather to get this many done
Trad routes-0 of 35- these should be mostly multipitch, still not that many to do
Winter routes-2 of 13- tricky as this really depends on condition
Boulder problems-163 of 327-Half way through!


Font 7C- Up to Font 7a+ this year so far.
Fitness for Font (3 font 7s in font) - I'm feeling pretty good for font, I've got a bit lighter (76kg) and been climbing lots, so I'm pretty hopeful!
10 pull ups in a row- managed this, new target 20 or maybe 10 with 10kg extra...
New solutions- Done, they're like magic shoes...
New routes-still there... The last one we tried wasn't frozen enough, spotted a new line which looks great next to it though, 3 pitches of pure water ice which looks about II/III with a pitch of maybe tech 4. Below are some boulders to try when it gets sunny again (location hint: They're in midwales):

Consolidate HVS and E1 trad Now done 4 HVS, 5 E1
Lead E2 ?!? Lead E2 and E3!! (Does slate count? )
Boulder Font 7a Only up to 6b+ but bouldering doesn't really count
Lots of DWS in Summer! Got the guidebook and the enthusiasm, just waiting for the water to warm up a bit, though was tempted last weekend
Get lots more alpine mountaineering done in Summer Need to get planning
RP 7a indoors? Hmm maybe next year

Yessss! I love quarterly reviews....



So,
- I have been looking for ski touring skis and have been saving money for winter time
- I haven't climbed Berlin's, mostly due to my set back, but I will be working near Nesscliffe permanently after easter so getting the time in shouldnt be too difficult!
- I Have finished the Jumper with a week to spare!!(see below)
- And have done some v4's so my pyramid is on track for some more v5s

But, I have had a set back in the form of a damaged a2 pulley on my ring finger which is very annoying, but I think I'm on the slow road to recovery.

I've been fisting loads of crack recently.

The climbing's going ok but I'm really shit on steep routes now.

Boulder V6
Flashed one. If you believe the guidebook. Which you shouldn't.

Do more trad multipitch
Done some smaller stuff in the Peak and off to Whales in a couple of weeks so looking good here.

Do some sport multipitch!
Not yet. Hatching a plan to go Cheddar...

shag VS without worrying too much
I still worry but less so. Kirkus' Route at Craig Lloer will be good test of VS and multipitch

F6c/+ O/S and F7's on the RP
Got a 6c/+ RP and toproped some harder things (7a o/s and 7a+ RP but who counts topropes?!)
Need to go to Llanymynech soon!

Keep training weaknesses
Plans laid for a fingerboard
Getting better at open handed climbing
Much better at lock-off moves than the back end of last year

2nd Quarter Climbs Wishlist
Kirkus' Route VS 5a, Craig Lloer
To Wish the Impossible F7a, Blacknor South
Jack the Smuggler F7a (soft), Llanymynech Quarry

Those are the big ones at the moment, lots more to do of course!

Consolidate HVS and E1 trad Now done 17 HVS, 8 E1
Lead E2 ?!? Led an E2 on limestone!
Boulder Font 7a Still only 6b+
Lots of DWS in Summer! Perhaps in this coming week?
Get lots more alpine mountaineering done in Summer Ferry booked! Bring on July
RP 7a indoors? Did a 7a in creation on lead though very easy so I won't count it.

Yes! I can't wait. Bring on the White Mountain. I might as well tick it off. Getting back my cardio atm... however running in london is dull! & sometimes dangerous.

See you on the 8th!
