Neil Mawson in double 8c Tufa-thon!

Having spent a fantastic few months in Spain Neil was super psyched to have completed two 8c routes in as many weeks.

First up was Espacio Tiempo in Sella, Costa Blanca where a 5 day battle with seepage was overcome with the cunning tactic of taping a rag over a crucial tufa just below the top to keep the hold dry!

Once completed Neil had his eye on a final project before returning home and topped out on the classic Tufa line Humildes Pa Casa at Oliana, Catalunya. A 50m excursion involving the first 25m at 7c+ to a good  rest then an amazing single tufa up a barrelling wall to the top.

Dude!

It's Here!

The Climbing Technology gear has arrived! Luckily the lorry made it through the biblical floods that we have been having here in Cumbria et voila - just click onto any page and choose from karabiners, via ferratta kits, belays, ascenders, harnesses, descenders, pulleys etc.

Annoyingly a small web glitch has meant that the climbing gear isn't quite up and live on the site but rest assured this will be rectified next week so that you can surf among the ice axes, crampons, snow anchors and ice screws.

If you are in Kendal for the KMFF this weekend then why not drop by the ISM & Kendal Wall stand and check out the exciting new Click Up first hand - it will be available to buy in three weeks time.

Or, if you are in Snowdonia then head for Joe Browns where you can fondle a wide range of Climbing Technology gear in person as they are the very first UK retailer to stock the range.
