Real feel good video, was willing Phill on even though knew he sends it. And emotion at end will be echoed by climbers everywhere!

Totally agree. Was happy as a pig in poo when he did it. It looks bloody hard for V3. The fabled Breck!

Watching the indoors footage, it's difficult to believe he's not been climbing long. He's very strong.

There's a lovely little video of a Spanish guy with one leg trying to onsight F8a. He almost succeeds...

This is a great video; Phil is an awesome climber…..I've been climbing 13 years and there's no way i'd have been able to manage that traverse 18months after having started - well done lad!
