velcro rock

Was going to go on the board yesterday, but ended up having a fingerboard session with Dave M. Didn't feel 100%, but did ok.

Had a long day at uni today, but rushed home so i could head to burbage with Dan. We wanted to try/do Darkstar - an unrepeated Welford 7c+. It is pretty high.

We arrived just as the sun was setting, and busted out the head torches. After warming up on Guplets on toast (a 7b+, also of welfords), we got stuck in. Conditions were amazing.

Dan did it quickly, and i was left falling from the crux endlessly! (i want to go back for this problem, it is really good). We packed up and went off to burbage west, where i managed Western Eyes (not so scary when you can't see the death boulder below) and Dan fell up West Side Story. We went back to Sheffield and had a short session on the board.




Dave is off to Swiss on Wednesday with a strong team. I am very jealous!


This is a totally unrelated pic of Lowrider at Stanage. You should all go and try this.
