Quietus really needs doing. Quite a lot of cool looking stuff on Higgar Tor as well.

Ahhhh Quietus, a real Extreme shag...

Me and Mark were talking about that route, we've both looked through those photos on ukc and each learnt one thing, it looks damn hard.

I'm still workin through those past dogged failures, so anybody for a daytrip to sennen?

not posted here for a while.

5 1-arm pull ups left/right done
7c+ done
Be able to run on my god-damned retarded ankle - not done, 8months and counting

Managed the doable ones, nothing specific left really, I'd like to do my first trad before 2011 though, kindof depends on my ankel, although I'm not going to try anything that looks pants

...or like it'd make me poo my pants ^^

I'd also like to do rubicon roof, as it and I have unfinished business, asides from that no specifics climbeywise, I wouldn't have dreamt that I'd be able to do so much this summer post cripplage, being able to move at speed on 2 legs would be a pretty nice christmas present to top it off though!

After a little thought, i whipped together these as a few (rough/ambitious) aims for this year..

comfortable on V5,
lead a 7a/+ indoors,
just do an outdoor sport lead -
if that goes well then 6b/c outdoors,
lead more HVS, and maybe
lead the flying buttress direct!!

this will be entertaining..

Seeing as there's a matter of weeks until the new year, how are people getting on with these? Anybody managed all of theirs or wanting to set some last minute compromise aims to get done before the new year kicks in?



1) Achieved many, many times in a variety of ways.
2) This was achieved at least for a while, though on a recent count I still struggle to do more than 7 even on the biggest of jugs so this may require some attention over the holidays
3) Managed to get up to a couple of font 7a/+ climbs in Parisella's and did a soft font 7a on grit which pretty much made my year. Also managed a font 6a slab but still have no idea how to shag these things really.
4) This one still requires a LOT of work, may be trying to remedy it with Ste at Redpoint over the next couple of weeks.

ok so.....
done a couple of font 7b's and a 7b+ not yet done a 7c but then havent had much chance to get outdoors
done a fair few 7a's now and a 7a+ but still no 7b
no trad done so sucess
still not done ice climbing yet (couldnt afford scotland)
Possibly got some technique although thats fairly debateable
not done any of my problems I wanted to do
all in all a reasonable sucess.
New aims
GET STRONGER
