Climb ZA

Wow this is the best trad pic I have seen in ages. The timing just perfect going for the jug and the R foot smear and strain on that slopey R hand make the shot. Who is it by and more details about the climb anyone? Another new 25 I think I read..this is top stuff, would be great to get an interview or something with Richard, its great to hear about new routes of this standard. Respect. Andrew

Reach? What reach? Amazing picture, and it looks like a great line squeeks.

Brilliant picture... very inspiring Richard!

Thanks for the great comments all!

An afternoon on the Ledge with two of the country's most active new-routers, Richard and Joe, is bound to send one home with at least one decent shot More to come.

Jono

He looks like Alberto Contador, all in yellow too!

Hells bells, thats inspirational - leave work, lets get out there!

The same way you burned me off on the Nose, Snort?
