Year Climb Grade Style Ascent Date
1999 Slab and Crack E8 Lead | worked 15th Aug 1999

Dislocated shoulder on the last hard move on lead, and just managed to do a one-arm mantle to finish. It's weird that you can tear yourself apart... Duncan kindly drove me to his doctor friend in Sheffield for some brilliant painkillers, and I sailed back to Leicester in a daze. A big day out for me!
