Worked in climbing walls and competitions since 1989.

I am one of the bods behind the Climbing Works in Sheffield and Gravity Climbing in Dublin.
Am a bit of a socialist/hippy when the opportunity arises though am realistic (I hope) :-)

Location
Sheffield

Best Climbing Experience
Lots. But highlights include:
The Manta (Bowden Doors), Spiral Summit (Utah), Agony (Castle Rock in the Lakes, 1st HVS and subsequently 1st E1 when it got upgraded) plus lots of others including a month in Arapiles putting plastic dinosaurs all over the place.

But generally memories are about people, places and trips/days rather than routes.

Favourite Climbing-Related Discussion Topic
Why climbing should be in the Olympics.

And why 3PS is either HVS or E1 but not E0.
