Ω News just in from our Deep South correspondent, Sam Anderson-Mangai:

Hey John,

I’m not sure if you had seen/tried Derek’s problem, ‘First Blood’ V9 on the Wave boulder. Thomas and I have been trying the new version after I broke a hold last summer (now using a small quartz crimp instead of the flake I pulled off). Managed to get the send yesterday making the Wave boulder the Bowder Stone of the Jardines. In keeping with the Rambo theme Derek had going I’ve re-named it ‘Million Dollar Equipment’ (still considered First Blood if you’re a purist ;p). Thomas did two new problems on ‘Big Slab’ boulder - ‘Big Lunge’ V5 and ‘Big Foot’ V4-5? Both pretty class.

Cheers

Sam

And that’s all folks! Ω

    Cheers Dave - I probably should have consulted more than one local legend on it’s origins. Kudos to Seb
