Keep hearing about these E9 onsights of RS's

Fess up then? Or are these some unfabricated Sheffield rumour mongering then...

Also, Rich, if your reading, what happend over your BH thing? Did you just end up looking stupid then?

Dear E75

Do you hear much when nobody else is about?

Did the voice in your head tell you to make this post?

Did the voice say you should repent your sins?

Do you see a bright light when you hear the voices?

I've not heard a single one of these rumours. I certainly heard of ryan pasquill onsighting/flashing (pick and choose) end of the affair but not heard anything about an e9 being onsighted. I think your talking crap. I'll take back my words when i see staged photos of the route in question in the mag with sponsor logos.

It was a Flash. With beta. Quite a bit I'm led to believe. And still a bloody fantastic achievement. A route with awkward, balancy and technical french 7b climbing is hard enough to flash, let alone one with very marginal (at best) gear with possible death potential.

Indeed you did.

"Ryan Pasquill flashed End of the Affair (E8 6c) on Curbar yesterday. Though End of the Affair is generally considered to be one of the easier grit E8s around, and a flashed ascent has been predicted for some time, the final hard move is off-balance, tenuous and powerful. With cams in a break too low to be of much use, a fall from this point could easily lead to serious injury. This is probably only the second Gritstone E8 to see a flashed ascent, the other being Countdown to Disaster, also flashed by Pasquill, in 2002. As well as a number of bold grit E7 on-sights, Pasquill is also a very strong boulderer, having climbed V13 at the Buttermilks, with his ascent of Dave Graham's Spectre. End of the Affair has also been soloed by Ben Heason and Ben Bransby. Bransby's solo was done in typical nonchalant style whilst out walking his dog. End of the Affair was first climbed by Johnny Dawes in 1986."

He flashed Renegade Master, which used to be E9. Think its settled at highball V9/10 ish.

Why are you lot giving e75c the time of day? Anonymous poster setting up an account to shit stir.

Let the thread die, unless e75c fesses up who he is and emails someone we trust with his tel no to check.
