I’m told the 360 campus move is a modern day classic. In this instance, by adding the optional passing kiss, it’s more nouveau riche. @ Oakwood Climbing Centre instagram.com/p/CQbd-47jKoV/… – at South East, England
Just trying my hardest to draw your attention away from the giant red… @ HarroWall instagram.com/p/CQBr1W1Dz83/… – at Harrow, London
I like big leg swings and I cannot lie. Lovely day setting the off-piste circuit down @ravenswall get them while they’re good. @ Ravenswall Climbing Centre instagram.com/p/CP_NMVxI2AT/… – at Hammersmith, London

All these kids with their protein shakes and BCAA’s… I’m at the kind of age now where I’m more into WD40 coated glucosamine tablets. My favourite bloc from today’s comp wall set at Harrowall. Get flexy. @ HarroWall instagram.com/p/CP8n6FooVim/… – at Harrow, London
Can’t believe no one has made an Instagram filter for removing saggy core yet. Now that would be useful. @ Oakwood Climbing Centre instagram.com/p/CPWIbeYDpPv/… – at South East, England
For those who say roof climbing isn’t fun. I give you the Monday morning smashy smash. Great first day setting on the @oakwoodclimbing island. Hopefully, plenty to get you cursing. @ Oakwood Climbing Centre instagram.com/p/CPQ9RLNj0N-/… – at South East, England
And we went round many times. Those pesky kids with their coordination moves...it’s too much for my ageing brain to compute. Guess I must have missed the memo from @gb_climbing for the SLC comp. @ Arch Climbing Wall instagram.com/p/CPLsIJFDdjR/… – at Brent, London
Closest I came to a double double during lockdown was a double cheeseburger. @ Arch Climbing Wall instagram.com/p/COvXYHTDBQv/… – at Ealing, London
I don’t care what you say, I think the hat is jaunty. @ Oakwood Climbing Centre instagram.com/p/COimwBHjuOg/… – at South East, England

I know Boomerangs are supposed to come back but these @cheetaholds bad boys just keep going. Another fun few days down @oakwoodclimbing for some socially distanced setting. There’s plenty ready for all you lovely Oakwooders to smash about on in a few weeks 🤞

Believe it or not, I actually like the sound of power drills when I climb, it helps drown out the sounds my creaky clicky old body makes.⠀ ⠀ Lovely little impromptu session today with @boulderingbobat checking out London’s newest gym ‘The nest’ Awesome space and vibe.

Today I have been mostly setting moves from some of my favourite Tom Cruise movies combining 1) The Mission Impossible 2 reverse cross through campus mixed with a spot of 2) Top Gun “Because I was Inverted”. Thanks for having me @oakwoodclimbing I hope you enjoy the tour.

And this is why 99% of my content should, and ordinarily is, shot from behind.⠀
I think it’s fair to say my retro flash may have tainted the original experience, literally forgot everything and had to engage the power yelp. So good to be back on this banger, putting it out there, best at the grade? ‘Höhenrausch’

Magic Wood!! Back after 10 years and loving it. Currently enjoying trying to re-find some flow and building confidence on old friends, today was the ultra classic ‘Octopussy’. Good times.
