Longhope Route Direct | E9 (Alternate Leads worked) | 25th May 2022 | |
Robbie and partner Alex Moore swapped leads on the lower section. Robbie then lead the crux pitch placing the gear before abbing the pitch so Alex could also lead it (on Robbie's gear, to save time).

Live Fast, Die Young | E7 (Lead worked) | 14th Jul 2022 | |
Second ascent. Robbie spent some time cleaning up the bold mid section of the route and found several small wires and a couple of cam placements that made the route significantly safer than how it was climbed on the first ascent. After his ascent Robbie supplied Alex Moore with his beta and Alex was able to flash the route! |
