UKC

Can anyone recommend some good crack sport climbs on portland. 6b and below preferably, although could try something harder.

Two to start you off..

Those are more layback flakes really. Not sure there’s anything that would prepare you for classic crack climbing. 

Not sure there’s really much bolted crack in the UK they tend to be left traditional. 

Chalkie and the Hex 5 (5c)

Thin fingers!?

Best Fingers Forward F6c at Wallsend South for something harder with thin fingers!

Forgot to add 

Jam (4c)

For hand / fist 

Try the peak district and some gritstone!

For good sport crack climbing? Try reading the post more carefully!

Bergen1backer, I've done almost nothing in Portland but I have done a bolted crack at the Cuttings. It was like 4+ or something. Amusingly lots of comments in the database were about it being hard, which just totally played into my southerners-can't-jam stereotypes, because it was super easy.

Another one next to mothers milk

Do You Like Our Owls? (6b)

This looks good will have to check it out. 

Best Fingers Forward (6c+)

A bit harder than you've asked for, but requires some crack climbing.

That was probably Jam (4c), but it really didn't need to be retro bolted, although I suppose that would have made it rather different to the other routes now there.

Was MVS 4c when I did it in the late 70s a long time before bolts came to Portland.

I have done that one but it was Chalkie and the Hex 5 (5c) that seemed much easier than its given grade.

not far away there are a few bolted ones in winspit and also hedbury quarries, jumping the gun, jargon eater and unseen ripples of the pebble are all worthwhile bolted crack climbs.
