Ascensiones en New South Wales and ACT como Attempt por Ben Vincent

Holy smokes. Cooked. 'Aided' the shit out of this. Will have to either get younger or do some proper training for this. Very inspiring!

Fell two moves from fininsh.

Ouch.

Oh no. I broke it. Sad. Was feeling good about this too and then on my second shot I pulled off a crucial hold. It might go with a start further right but it’ll add a grade or two. Broken hold is tucked away at the base of the boulder directly below where it used to live.

Erm nah. Not in this lifetime. Tantalising close but to being all there but it wasn’t.

As hard and as sharp as nails. I thought I’d get back into it pretty quickly but turns out I had to relearn the beta…it was coming back to me by the end. Good to get gear placements sorted.

Had a wee tickle.

V....what(ever)?! Bloody hell, this'd probably get a V5 in the New England. Can't confirm that though cause I couldn't finish it ;-D

Got a ways along to the first overlap/corner. As good as I remebered it.

Got around the corner and faffed around trying to go high..

All the overhanging, off-witdth crack training you need. Such a burly struggle from the sit start. Reached my high point again above the lip but couldn't get my feet on anything useful to finish....another heartbreak

Nope. A little too optimistic for this time of the night. Needed Nathan at hand to recall how this went.

nope ;-)

a few long burns but not quite able to get the finish....

A good find and quality problem!

sharp!

Feeling good but forgot the beta, naturally....

A high quality low-ball grovel. Must've had 7 attempts today. Tricksy to keep the feet in at the crux.

I love this thing. It's such a grovel-fest every time and gives nothing. I had a bunch of attempts from the inverted sit start but no joy. I got the top clean on one attempt from the stand start. look forward to linking these

Finally got a tickle on this thing before the trickles got intense and the rock soaked.

Had one go at this as it started spitting and slowly fell away in no-mans land. Good to see Benji get oh so close.

You get your moneys worth on this one. This grovel fest is an instant classic. Best attempt was my first go. Knee bars, stacked hands, shoulder jams, balancy feet, inverted moves and it's only 3m tall!

Whoa Nelly. This thing is really beaut. I really wasn't feeling the sketchy desperate RH dyno with the shitty right foot (not sure why) so tried a semi-static LH and was pretty surprised/stoked when it stuck 3rd go from the crimp rail. Tried a few times to do the full link and got close. Maybe next time

Quite a tricksy downclimb traverse crux. Will require better footwork. Big juggy foot at halfway is not in

The block was a bit wet and spoogie today.

Pretty wet and spoogy from an earlier shower. Had a couple of half hearted attempts before spooging off and calling it a day.

Ermagerd. Thin, bunched and sharp with crap feet. God knows how Cazza sent this thing. Not sure I could ever get through the traverse.

It's been a while. Another four throws. Was stoked to land the chip twice and be reminded of the BD texture.

Thought we'd have a few throws at this under headlamp to finish. Several very close attempts later it was Vulcanology that finished us.

obvious mantle practice and an absolute ab burner

You don't just waltz up this thing. Had a couple of goes and thought I save my arm and leg skin. Still love it.

This thing is really good. Got very close on my last attempt but chipped-off a wee bit off the key footer. There's still plenty on it though

Wow. I could pull on but that was it. Will come back with fresher skin (and stronger arms). Nice job Al!

Hmmm. Not much to pull on here.Seems much harder than V4.

Always wanted to get on this and today we had both pads and pysch. The psych died down after a few attempts. I think we probably spent ourselves on Ossuary.... I think it's all there but is pretty committing on poor feet and a very small crystally edge. According to Skip Dan did this with one pad.... we had 6 and I wouldn't do it with less.

If anyone ever gets through this I will pay to see it. I spent at least 10 mins stuck upside down in this thing. Everyone had a crack. Hilarious and totally worth it. Tight like a tiger.

Got very close on first attempt. had high feet and hands and simply had to throw for the lip but couldn't take my eyes off my feet for fear of blowing...and then I did a big barn door and fell from the top on to no pads! Totally ninjared it though and didn't even break my ankles. stoked. Had a few more goes with pads better placed but I think my nerves were shot. Benji nailed it and found a key footer which takes away the dodgy barn door. Well done sir.

nope.

I got the top out from the higher holds at a stretched stand start. Prob gets a v3-4 from these holds...maybe...?

v4 pffft. Even had good temps.Got further at least now that I know foot jamming is kosher.

Oh so close. Was hanging around up the top on the disc, feet ready to go, then threw and missed the finish hold. Pretty happy to get back on this old classic!

Fell from the top and exploded the pad log. Topping out this thing always gives me the hebbie-jeebies.

Tried this a few times under headlamp but had no real idea what was going on....

Hmmm, got pretty tied up on this. High left foot/hand match? High Right foot/hand match? Who knows?!

Hard. Very little in the way of feet. Seems possible though. Fantastic fun throwing ourselves at it

Got close and felt pulley
