Privy to one of the few ugly landings at Baring Head, Lost Boys inspires precision in those that attempt it. Don't miss the blind slimper over the bulge. Dave Kopp(ulator) pictured Photo by Pete McGregor Baring Head Rock Hop 2006

Climbing at Baring Head, Wellington is more than just sequency highballs and perfect sand landings, it's about the brotherhood. And the scenery. Wish we could've got a seal it in the photo as well. Kudos to the photographer Pete McGregor. Pictured are Sam Knights and Ryan Haeseley.

Tie me kangaroo down sport! Our Aussie friend Beno on the seaward boulder at Baring Head near Wellington, NZ.

Mayan Smith-Gobat showing the women what form it takes to win the Baring head section of the New Zealand National Bouldering series 2004. Not the first time she has done that. Route - I'm not sure, but the chalk was to restrict climbers from taking the easy way out.

Another visiting Japanese climber trying his luck on a Baring head boulder as part of the national bouldering comp. Only allowed to use the chalk ringed holds, this was artificially taken to an NZ V6 problem if I remember rightly. These crazy rock carvings are done by the sea as this is at the beach but the rock is extremely solid.

Sebastian Lowensteijn on a problem at the Baring head session of the National bouldering comp. I believe he was actually showing some others how to do this problem, if you look carefully you'll see the chalk rings dictating where feet and hands can go, and the 92, 93 indicating this is was problem 92 and 93. Oh by the way he won the comp and the series.

Visiting Japanese climber tackling a boulder problem at Baring Head as part of the New Zealand National Bouldering Series. Looked like he was having fun :). Great climbing on these sea eroded boulders at the beach.
