Cheers,
David and John.

Hüsker Dü?
Pocket dynamo Amie Jones recently nabbed the first female ascent of Land Speed Record. Here is a video of her doing the problem. Although Ivan downrated the problem a while back to V6, we think she deserves her V7 tick for her power-squeals alone. Good job Amie!

Lost camera
Well, I found it actually. I ran out this evening after work and it was exactly where I left it. Sorry,what??
Anyway, on the camera was a pic of me trying Dead Souls, which I sent straight after I retrieved my camera. Pete and I couldn't do it on Monday, perhaps after 15 tries. Guess the gusty northerly and frigid night air helped the friction.

Spot the difference
Yesterday, Monday 9th, JP muscled up and sent the Kompressor Arête project at the Bronx. Check out the montage detailing 2004 when he first tried the problem and 2007 when he sent, and tell us the key difference. For a clue, check his last post.
For the record, it gets V7. The hard list was updated accordingly.
