26 Gratefully Dead Sport 25m, 8 Don't Bother
One very hard section

 
24 Upchuck Sport 20m Good
Sun 10th Mar 2024 - Mt Coree area
Lost Vegas Main walls
27 ~26 Indecent Exposure Sport 15m Good
Punchy number with some nice bouldery movement. Grades are tricky and personal. My opinion is it's solid at 26. (My other opinion is that the star ratings for this and flirtation should be swapped!)

 
Sun 4th Feb 2024 - Mt Coree area
Hollywood
26 Action Satisfaction Sport 8m Good
Bouldery. Feels like the crack is always beckoning.

Corin Road Bouldering Strawberry Fields

Had a long session on it and felt totally shut down, came back fresh and smashed it first go, hard on the right shoulder. Psyched.

Sat 12th Aug 2023 - Kalbarri
The Z Bend The Pit
29 ~28 Jizz Lobber Sport 20m Very Good
Hard roof boulder (would be a whole lot harder if you couldn't span from the pinch jug to the first left sidepull) and then classy climbing through the traverse and up the slab - shame the headwall isn't longer - it's great! I think 28 is fair.

 
Thu 10th Aug 2023 - Kalbarri

25 Going The Tonk With Zena Sport 20m Very Good
Sun 25th Jun 2023 - Pierce's Creek
Laurel Camp Rd Tumblers
V5 Ristretto Boulder 3m
Punchy! Would be very hard if you couldn't reach the right footer down low! (seems the footer is also a bit crumbly so this climb might be a bit short lived )

 
Sun 25th Jun 2023 - Pierce's Creek
Western Area Cohiba East
V9 ~V8 Couch Fisher Boulder 3m Very Good
Probably more like 8 (might be easier with the cut swing now that Fishery flake has broken)

 
V6 Shlap Boulder 3m Very Good
Sun 4th Jun 2023 - Pierce's Creek
Laurel Camp Rd Tumblers
V8 Funk Star Deluxe Boulder 5m Very Good
Interested to try this with some different beta... The jump is certainly cool though.

 
V5 Hard Hot Cocoa Boulder 5m Classic
Mega classic. Deserves more attention. Stiff for the grade. I'd say it's more like 6 but would need to try again with better connie's to be sure.

 
Sat 27th May 2023 - Canberra

Fulfilled the description prophecy - it was raining. Route was mostly dry. Loose block in the roof so be careful. Very entertaining 3D climbing through the roof.

Tue 18th Oct 2022 - Magnetic Island
Rocky Bay The Middle Boulders
V7 Quart de Siècle (Quart de Siecle) Boulder 4m Very Good
Salty beach blocs. Not sure if the sit start has been done but would likely add a grade (~8?) Stand felt about 7.

 
Tue 18th Oct 2022 - Magnetic Island
Rocky Bay Left Side
V5 Reverie Boulder 5m Classic
An island classic and a quality boulder anywhere you'd find it.

 
V7 V9 American Invasion #1 - with Christopher Glastonbury Boulder Average
Who knows what the FA did but ignored the megajugs and went straight up. On the crack and then some crimps.

 
Mon 17th Oct 2022 - Magnetic Island

Holidayyyyyys baby! Barefoot

 
Sun 16th Oct 2022 - Castle Hill

19 Vision - with Teagan Westendorf Sport 70m, 12 Very Good
A nice hangover remedy. Should have done it a few hours later - topped out in the dark but they hadn't turned on the floodlights yet! Swinging leads with Teagz.

 
Mon 10th Oct 2022 - Sunny Bay
The Fish Bowl
V6 V7 Original oyster - with Callum Mather Boulder 5m Classic
Great climb! The sneaky right sidepull makes it a bit easier. First time having to run from a fire while bouldering... Thanks for showing me round Callum!

V8 Single Female Lawyer Sit Start Boulder 4m Very Good
The sit is better than I remembered it being. Love the karate kick toe hook.

 
Sun 4th Sep 2022 - Queanbeyan area
Black Range bouldering The Middles
V4 Spread Boulder 3m Good
Added a few moves with a Dabby low start from the slopey edges below and a high left toe. Pretty fun, pretty dabby. Not worth logging separately

 
V7 Slam Dunkin' Boulder Classic
Bit sharp, some funky beta to avoid tweaking the hammy further! Fun to revisit after doing this with Dan years ago

 
Sat 3rd Sep 2022 - Mt Coree area
Lost Vegas Main walls
26 Backyard Blitz Sport 25m Very Good
Second shot. Ah zee pump! (Also good god don't think too much about the state of those holds...)

The Grotto Cliffline The Hood Area
27 28 Evil E Sport 20m Classic
Not sure if the FA used the funky gripsta rest? Great route either way but I suspect 27 with 28 without.

21 Diprotodon Sport 22m Very Good
Sat 20th Aug 2022 - Nowra
The Grotto Cliffline Gonads Wall
22 Pissed-Up Porker Stalker Sport 22m, 9 Very Good
Pretty dirty after the rain. Not a bad route - agree with some that it's soft for a G Hill route! As far as hardest move on the wall - absolutely not if you're tall! Probably deserves a bit more traffic

 
Sun 7th Aug 2022 - Nowra
The Grotto Cliffline Moon Wall
26 Mephisto Sport 12m Very Good
I thought this was a bloody cool rock climb. Hard bouldery and jumpy down low into some great crimps on the top half. Underrated. Second shot

24 23 Paul Cook - with Christopher Glastonbury Sport 22m Very Good
Sandbag. gonna give it the upgrade it deserves. Admittedly unsustained but that crux is tough!
