What Robinson has done recently is nothing short of astonishing. After completely destroying Rocklands with Daniel Woods he's now crushing Switzerland in sh*t conditions. It sounds quite impressive to say x number of 8A+s in a short time but many of these problems were originally given 8B and he's either flashing them or doing them in a couple of goes. I hope he gets some decent weather and gets some of the really hard stuff done.

Interesting stuff on his blog about grades etc..........

Surely a round up means that all the information is gathered in 1 place. So why not include the links in there to save people questioning the info?
