3 months down. Longer days. Sunnier weather. People going to Font. Summer trip to Cornwall planned.

How are people getting on? Any new aims?

Before the end of the year:

Go on an awesome trip (Third year running!) hopefully abroad (Font or Kalymnos in Easter maybs)
Go to Scotland next year!


Man up on trad and stop being a pansy!
Second some more hard trad grades and maybe try and enjoy grit (doubtful)
Lead 6a comfortably indoors
Lead 6a clean onsight outdoors
Second/TR 6b outdoors and indoors


Bouldering....NAAAAAAAAAAAA

Improve fitness and find time to use my gym membership which I found out I still have for two months



In response to jay
Going to Font in a few weeks..woop woop
No idea on scotland yet
Not done much trad leading but done a good few harder routes on second which were awesome
Not lead 6a outdoors yet but its doable if i stop bein a little **** about it
On my way to some 6bs indoors if I shag with Dexter a bit more often

So not doin great...but could be worse
cant wait for exams to be over and to get OUTDOORSS!!

Going to spend quite a bit more time sport climbing this year. Also, as this is probably the last chance I'll really get to push my climbing, I'm going to go all out for the next 8months and hopefully send some hard junk! It's a really good feeling when you get that last hold knowing that you've used up everything your body has! Therefore I'm going to be training a little bit like a machine, (probably still not as much as Byron though!! :-) ) Hopefully the weather will be good this year. If I get injured I plan to join a band instead. I guess it's good to aim high. At the same time it'll probably be pretty embarrassing when I don't achieve any of my goals.


Boulder v11 - Kind of!! Alright!
shag 8 x F8a and above - So far, huge fail. Bouldering prevailed!
Flash a F7c - Done! and in feb! 10 months to push this further.
Need to stop falling off F6c+'s - Not fallen off any! Granted I haven't tried many.

Current Hit list: (lots will be added throughout the year, like my list from last year)

Sport: Brean Topping, F8b; Elite Syncopations, F8a; Hot Fun Closing, F8a; Caviar, F8a+; The Spider, F8a; Milky Bar Kid, F8a+; Cider Soak, F8a; Mussel Beach, F8a; Statement of Youth, F8a; Liron Careto, F7c; Cosas Caseras, F7a+; Bichaca, F7c; Broken Dreams, F7b+; Sunnyside Up Mix, F7b; Dyperspace, F7c; Bullworker, F7c; The Rivals, F7c+.

Flash / RP

Boulders: Wheelbarrow, v10; Tsunamish, v10; Cave Life Short, v9; Left Wall High, v9; Rock Atrocity, v9; The Storm, v8; Zippy's Traverse, v8; Bus Stop, v9; Not Bad Dave Assis, v9; Tierdrop, v7; Simple Simon(Finally!), v8; Le Toit Du Cul du Chien, v6; The Press, v8; Trigger Cut, v10/11; Barrel Traverse, v8+; Fat Cat into Taylor Made Eliminate, v10/11.

Oh yeah, try and get a 2.1 in my degree, get a job abroad and sod off out of the UK asap! lol

New aims to be appended to the rest:-

Get my cardio back
Finally get the intro riff of Black Dog down without any flaws.
Save some money for Scotland
Try not to party till 5am every Friday and Saturday after work. :/ (My body is in tatters after so many nights out!)
Save some money for a house/christmas presents/a new car and one f**k off enormous climbing holiday in a year or so's time.

With the grit season well and truly underway, has anyone got any winter aims? FBD maybe? 3PS? The sloth? Valkyrie? Deliverance? NTBTA? I f*cking love grit!
