>Did you take any lobs?

Yeah he did..

It was a good effort as the weather was pretty rough, windy and foggy.. only Andy and Mark were at the crag when I showed up to go bouldering. We had the whole of the Roaches to ourselves in stark contrast to the crowds two weeks ago.

Well done Andy,

You haven't, he flashed it the other day- solo.

In reply to mark s:

He flashed it last week or the week before, how the hell would Sam W know? Does he have 24hr CCTV surveillance?

How the hell can you claim he hasn't?

Teach you to be so arrogant eh?!

In reply to ano:

Why has it not made big news as it is probably the most impressive onsight on grit!

Sam is one of bens best mates? Believe me he would know.

And who told you this anyway?

I really can not see ben soloing it,onsight! Perhaps it was a lead but solo ? ?

He was telling me a few weeks ago he has had enough of really bold stuff now. . . he wants to boulder more!

OP Charlie 30 Dec 2002
In reply to Justin:

Its true matey, from the horses mouth. Not onsight cos he's seen hard grit. But it was flashed and soloed.

In reply to Charlie:

"Heason soloed paralogisism to try and get his head back into gear for the grit this winter.I saw seb do it on hard grit so i dont class it as an onsight flash!"

Bullshit heason you are a f*cking nutter and insane! You are the supreme mentalist ! I take my hat off to you ! Even if you see it on video its still a different ball game when your on it!especially if its as susstained and probably death on hard 6c climbimg on a roof!

This ascent was perhaps the most impresive onsight ever on grit!

Shit man!!!

Respect!

In reply to justin critchlow:
Agreed at least on most other grit routes you could stand around and holler for a TR, bit tricky on this one I'd imagine. If this was the hors d'oeurves makes you wonder what he has planned for the rest of the winter.
