I have been climbing for a while now but still seem to be stuck in the lower grades, don't know if this is because I am crap or I just haven't tried hard enough, I am getting more bald than bold but hopefully I should make ammends soon. Well have made amends and jumped a few grades in a day managed a HVS, an E1 and and E2 so I am on the way up hopefully
