today a bunch of 11 sing climbers came to visit the crag.

notable are Halil's repeats of 'Love at first Bite, 7b+' and a brand new route, 1st ascended by Patrick just some hour before. Patrick hasn't decided on the name yet, the grade is around 7a, the route is an extension of 'Diaperjaya'. Halil was inspired and boosted by life music and karaoke from a mostly female crowd...

ok, the new route is called "Lau Beh".
Any other than that there was a close try of "Stigmata" by Adi and a red/cross ascent of "Pear" by Kevin.

we just came back from a peaceful crag where blocx intructor Jeremy Peet redpointed "chess", his first 7a. crashing through this psychological barrier (of numbers) we hope to hear more of him and his ascents in the near future

talking about chess... Azam repeated this testpiece today (his 2nd 7a) while Nizam did a bungee jump like dive at the roof when the rope got entangled between his feet.
After that remarkable incident Azam nearly onsighted Oximoron (6c+) , however, he did not have enough reserve to clip the anchor(he was also trying to clip from a sloper insted from the jug higher up)
