Again another new section of a crag which I haven't visited before! How can there be more! Good old Portland!

We visited a new to us crag on the island, yes we are still finding crags we haven't been too! Pretty decent little crag with a new 7a+ which the Aloft climbing club gifted to me as they couldn't quite get the clean tick. 'Safety First Then Teamwork' is made up of one very hard pull on a mono, it climbs much nicer than it sounds haha.

Been busy recently!

I have been helping with the new Dorset @rockfax with my local 'knowledge' and filling it with lots of lovely images. I am psyched to see it printed as it looks great on the computer! Also been inspecting and route setting all over the South. Fortunately, I am getting a few quieter weeks ahead, so hopefully, I will get back on the rock (particularly this route) for a bit of climbing and getting a few more images that I can share with you guys.

It's pretty clear that climbing on Portland is something I love. If I'm not there I am probably thinking about when I can be, so when @profhatchet and @jonbutters came up with the Portland Olympian I was keen.
•
The Olympian is a race around the island climbing at all the crags minus Blacknor Beach and Nicodemus Knob. That's 14 routes, each climber in your pair needs to lead every route, clean. There are two spots, White Hole and Cave Hole where you can DWS but both climbers need to stay dry. You have to carry everything you need and you have to travel by foot, the start and finish point is at the Olympic rings at the top of Portland. The score is made up from a calculation of the grades of the routes, the stars of the routes and the time taken. Check out the Facebook page for all the info.

Pete and Jon's original outing saw them hit 14 7a's in 13hrs and 40mins. Pete then returned with @_hannah_whaley_ for a quick burn hitting 6's and getting a time of 8hrs 40mins but unfortunately it didn't count as they missed one crag and doubled another. Surprisingly 4 known attempts and only the original score counted until today!
•
@patterngenerator set out today leaving the rings at 7:45 and returned at 14:20. That's 16.8km and 14 routes each in 6hrs 35mins. Way faster than we imagined it would be! We mixed up the routes for speed and points but also had to sacrifice a few and replace them on the effort as other climbers were on them or the tide and sea was washing at the base, hence The Coastguard South route. It's a proper team effort, and great fun! I can't wait to go and beat the time and score again!
