BenedictIEP - 2nd β - 21/Jul/12 with Haydn Martin

Substantially easier than Extraction (HVS) at the same crag. One move wonder, but the crash into the ledge if you fluff it would be unpleasant.
Hardonicus - Lead O/S - 21/Jul/12 with Ben Powrie

Moves felt very easy... Had already led it earlier in the day. Very nice though.
Dafydd Llywelyn - Solo rpt - 18/Jun/12 with Ed Hutchings

Shaky mid summer neckie grit ascent. Took ages to commit to one crux move which screams "this is going to be soooo easy" at you but for some reason you think otherwise. Mmmmm must remember that this winter!!
