Gareth, myself and Kentastic ripped up the Stapylton area on the weekend. Lots of ticks, sore hands and sunburn was the end result. Full photo gallery here!

Neil great photo' s mate what was Invisable fist like, it looks like amazing rock.
Would you say it's a pumper or one move wonder or fairly sustained climb ??

Anyways great photo's congrats on some great ticks over the weekend.

Cheers
Chris.

Invisble - felt soft technically for the grade. I didn't have to 'work' any moves on it - just recover from monster pump at the 2/3 rest position. It is a bit runout in places with some exciting fall potential (clipping last bolt!) Certianly one of the easier 26's in the gramps in my opinion.
