Hey guys,

Thanks for your quick replies! The V7 that your talking about, Phil, I think is Blitzkrieg (a.k.a Heavens Gate). It isn't mentioned in the Sydney Bouldering guide.

I've also split Nic into two separate problems. The Syd Bouldering guide has two variants on Nic. The first variant I think is the Australianbouldering.com equivalant of Nuclear Winter. The second variant I just called Nic.

There's also another problem that goes up The Edge Ladder and goes left through the scoop and finishes on the Go Granny Go jug, I think it's called Lil Nicky?

Another problem that a friend showed me is approx. V6 that is kinda a variant on New World Order. You start on the big slope (finishing slope of Bongo Slap), R hand up to ear, cross under with L hand on the good edge, then R hand across the scoop to The Edge Ladder Triangle, get a huge drop knee out left, lock R arm and go up with L hand to the high New World Order crimp, then R hand up to The Edge Ladder finishing jug, match...anyone with me...?or have i totally lost and confused you all....if you're still with me, do you know the name of this problem? It's a really kewl problem by the way!

Someone generously lent me "The Sissy Crag Menu", which is a pretty old guide of Sissy. It has a problem called, "The Curse (V8). The description is as follows:
"A very powerful problem that starts under the roof (Mr Smiley area), and finishes up using the Detonator hold. A relatively new problem, hence lack of details."
If anyone has more info on this problem could you please tell me!

Another 'old' problem in this guide with very brief description is "Clancy (V8)", there's a couple of photos of people on it in the Sydney Bouldering guide. The description is as follows:
"Ask a local for beta regarding this one. Start slightly right of Detonator, and take a direct line up via the 'Travis hold' to finish as for Vitamin C."
Again if anyone has info on this problem could you please tell me.

Thanks,

Jason
