Following recent spanking/embarrassment on Valkyrie at Froggatt, I have decided to embark on a mission to shag the most disgusting and horrendous jamming cracks and off-widths I can find.

Any route suggestions?

Millstone in the peaks is amazing for cracks and when you can no longer face anymore there is some nice slabs aswell

Hooked on Crack, Aillade. It's about 1/2 a foot wide, all the way up. Not small enough for fists, more like legs and entire arms!

But it's not about the grade, it's about the experience and when it comes to wide the experience is the same for everyone: that means nausea, vomitting, third degree burns, knuckle and shin abrasions, open flesh wounds, lots of blood, pressure wounds, the full body pump, stacked fists, kneelocks, headlocks, full body constriction, lack of oxygen, inside-out peristalsis, and above all, power and rubber. Not to mention spending a small fortune on spring-loaded camming devices and expandable tube chocks.

If its a venue you're looking for Millstone is the dogs balls. VS--> all safe as houses. The Embankment routes are all quality. Best avoided on a warm day though! Strapiombo at Froggatt is pretty beezer. Bring at least one #4 Friend and its well safe, really good fallout zone. Can cut loose on those jimmyjams!

Have been getting spanked by cracks over here in good ole NI. Fell off the last 3/4 that I've been on. Getting better slowly but surely but it still scares the shit outta me having to trust that kind of climbing. I cry like a girl before peeling off. Ask Rose!

Got such a hard on for jamming at the minute. Did almost 100m worth of crack climbing yesterday and had such a good time. Such a crazy ass way to shag. Dosen't take too long to get the swing of it either.

Biggest tip: tape those hands up like a mofo. Makes such a difference, seriously like climbing in trainers then putting on a pair of rock boots.
