Routes in Africa for selected grade

Bolted by Dylan Vogt and Chris Cosser. This line takes the beautiful blank rock just downstream of 'Squawplay' via some absolutely insane moves on monos. By Chris's own account he said it could be 9a.

Extention of The Megalomaniac. Starting on The Megalomaniac, it runs along till the last bolt of The Megalomaniac, tends gradually upward, then crosses over the last bolt of Kleptomaniac, the last bolt of Cock or Bollock (in the roof) and then follows a roof crack and ends on Violent Streak's chains.

Sit start with left hand on a shark fin edge and right hand on a slopey dish. Do some hard core crimping and climb up diagonally left, then top out

Start as hydra but continue left via a ridiculous move to a crimp. This move will separate the men from the bois....

Low roof to the left of Armed Response. Opened as 8B by Daniel Woods in 2008. In 2016 a hold broke and opened up a slot in one of the rails, which made it easier, 8A+.

It’s a new slot hold that you can take with the left hand on the 2nd rail after the right hand pinch. If you check older videos e.g. Jesse Bonin 2009 you can see no slot crack and no chalk on the rail. People went up right hand to a further rail.
