University rec centre bouldering. There are a number of newly marked routes, holds have been moved. Spinning holds have been tightened. Go climbing.

Tuesdays. 4:30pm-7pm is a regular climbing slot booked out for climbers. There were 15 people last Tuesday.During the day the room is generally free to use, go check.

Thoughts on setting another regular time slot during the week - something like 3pm-5pm Thursday?

good news is that the t-nuts are mostly fine for the top of the steep slab and the headwall. A few holds have been moved, and a few more are going to be moved. Likely to be close to 20 problems marked soon. No idea of grades, they are seeming easier by the day... Tuesday 6pm there should be a few people, as well as at various late afternoon sessions during the week.

Thanks for the info Kate, that's stink about the t-nut problem, how stupid are they?!?

Tera, think i met you once there early last year? me and some other guy were pissing around and did some slab routes, we may have had beards... anyway, cool, may see you some tuesdays then. Those routes are mostly of the project/training flavour. I'll mark up some easier stuff sometime next week. I tend to be there sometime during the day on mondays and thursdays if I'm in wellington and not up to something else... probably won't be there again until at least a week from now though

also. Freyberg. Anyone bothering? I got close to the low traverse there - grade something I guess. And got laughed at last time i bothered using a rope.

any action on the rec centre climbing wall front? I've got some spare time and want to gain some type of climbing competence during the next few months. Be good to get some other people along as well...

I've marked a few climbs recently, yellow stickers and all sit-starts - let me know what you think. I've got no idea what sort of numbers to associate with them, nothing harder than V3/4 I guess?

Also - any objection to moving a bunch of holds? the 10degree wall needs holds up high, and the slab is plastered at the moment
