Fri 1st Mar 2024 - Blue Mountains
Katoomba Area Ngula Bulgarabang/ Radiata Plateau Marchant's Canyon Crags Waylander
23 Born Restless - with Aaron Jones, Heath Black Sport 30m, 13 Very Good
Very good! Even the start slab is great!

 
23 Saw-Toothed Snake - with Aaron Jones, Heath Black Sport 28m, 13 Very Good
Very pleasant climb, good fun!

 
24 The Darkest Hour - with Aaron Jones, Heath Black Sport 25m, 12 Good
not the best warm up, found a few bits hard to read, the beta from Aaron "I think Neil grunted through this bit..." doesn't disqualify my onsight.

 
27 Kaizen - with Aaron Jones Sport 38m Very Good
Just flashed the 25 bit and stopped at anchor under roof, bloody good climb!

 
Sat 30th Dec 2023 - Blue Mountains
Blackheath Area Celebrity Crags Sharon Stone
27 Some Violence and Sexual References - with The fam Sport 20m, 11 Very Good
My second 27 onsight! Conditions were unfairly good and I kept on trucking making only few reading mistakes that I could recover from. Albeit inconsistent in difficulty, this climb delivers great moves all the way up on fantastic holds.

 
Fri 22nd Dec 2023 - Blue Mountains
Newnes Plateau Gardens of Stone State Conservation Area Dingo Creek
26 Indian Pacific - with Julie Anderson Sport 38m, 17 Classic
Sooo good, I had to come back a few times over the years to get the crux sorted. Most of the climb is 3-4 grades easier than the crux section but for some reasons it's still exciting and it climbs so well. I rate this climb and will do it again.

 
Mon 4th Dec 2023 - Blue Mountains
Mount Victoria Area Bardens Lookout Adults Only Cave
26 M0 The Way of All Flesh M0 - with Rick Sport 22m Very Good
Warming up for Haystack Madness ;-)

 
Mon 18th Sep 2023 - Blue Mountains

18 Bunny Bucket Buttress - with Anton Korsun Sport 270m Good
Hybrid simul climb, Anton lead the first half, I lead the second. Was quickly over.

 
Tue 27th Jun 2023 - Blue Mountains

Tue 18th Apr 2023 - Blue Mountains
Bells Line of Road & Chifley Rd Pierces Pass Walls Lookdown
25 Disco Non-Stop Party - with Rick Sport 40m, 13 Mega Classic
Saved this one for the onsight, I let Rick rap down the fix line first and I took off the draws he needed to reach belay station on my way down trying not to look too much. Unfortunately fell off at second draw, rookie mistake... lowered and climbed the whole thing in an ascent very close to an onsight. Very happy with my effort, I found this climb mentally challenging but pushed through uncertainty and kept on marching. Absolutely fantastic climb and an ascent forging mental strength and lifetime memories. Just another great day out with my mate Rick!

 
Wed 8th Mar 2023 - Blue Mountains
Bells Line of Road & Chifley Rd Pierces Pass Walls Lookdown
25 I Have a Dream - with Heath Black Sport 50m, 13 Classic
Alzheimer Flash, I didn't remember any moves from few years ago attempt. Lucky I could rest every 2 moves, 3-4 cruxes got me thinking and I had to push quite hard, didn't cruise it. Memorable ascent. Grateful there were long slings pre-placed on few crux bolts. Didn't find the runouts outrageous as they are on easier sections. New belay bolts are great.

 
Wed 1st Mar 2023 - Blue Mountains
Bells Line of Road & Chifley Rd Cosmic County Area Railway Cliff
25 Cicatrix Sport 20m
Could Flash this with Neil's long draw to protect the hard move. Would be mentally much harder placing gear.

 
25 Gumbo Akimbo Sport 30m, 14 Classic
Second shot, messed up the onsight getting into the roof after all that struggle on the slab.

 
25 I Must Go Down to the Sea Again
1 25 40m Sport
2 20 20m Sport
3 22 45m Sport

Fri 17th Jun 2022 - Blue Mountains
Bells Line of Road & Chifley Rd Cosmic County Area Cosmic County The 39 Steps
25 Toyland Direct Sport 30m Classic
Warmed up doing the onsight attempt and it almost worked but I missed a hold to the right on the slabby section towards the top and grabbed awful footholds and retreated downclimbing to good double-crimp tried to recover and went again the same way thinking it would work... Flopped on the bolt. Julie gave me the beta and I cruised to the top. Got it second shot. Most holds are amazing on this climb (except the footer that got me ;-)

24 Work Cover - with Family Sport 20m, 9 Very Good
FFA. It all started one day I run up Work Injury and my little one says: why you stop here Papa? You're not at the top! I looked up and replied, fair enough, why is the climb stopping here???

27 Big Red - with James Sport 60m, 23 Don't Bother
This climb hasn't been manufactured to my body length... seriously I was shocked by the number of drilled holds and the way they have been made, I mean a gym hold looks more natural.
