Murdoch video
Getting closer to my climbing goals for 2008. The last two weekends I've been focused on climbs in the 20-22 range - building a solid 'pyramid' for my push to 24. Last Saturday in the Blue Mountains I red pointed (climbed clean on lead after rehearsing the moves) a 21 called 'Lady Grinning Soul' and followed that with a failed on sight of the 21 'Hang on to Yourself' (but i did manged a clean top rope of it - I'll red point it next time I'm there) Yesterday in Nowra I on sighted 'Beavis' (20) after warming up on 'Butt Head' just next to it - lol. Later I had a shot at on sighting the 22 'Murdoch the Horsef*r' - I fell trying to sort out the first moves off the top of the starting boulder... once i figured those out I did get to the top with one rest. The second attempt was captured on video above... have a watch if you're interested in my very vocal climbing style - someone once told me "if you're grunting you're breathing" and that's stuck with me...
