Our big wall exploits were kindly supported by DMM Climbing, who supplied us with crucial climbing hardware to get the job done - including Dragon cams, Offset alloys, Brass Imps, Swivels and Revolver carabiners. Without their support, we would have had a bloody hard time getting up anything. Thanks to everyone at DMM!

Enjoyed that and your other videos on Vimeo. Really liked the look of the slate cracks you were training on in video 3, what routes were they?
