HVS extravaganza at Stanage Popular, after hitting the deck on an E1

Initially wanting to do Desperation, E1 6a, at Stanage, I unfortunately fell off, taking a ground fall (a hint of artistic licence) in the process. Instead, me and Tom decided to do 3 separate HVS's.

I'm a bit staggered by the genius of the sock thing

New video sponsorship opportunity incoming

Those socks have rocked my world. I wish I had come up with that.

[@MF-CLIMB]

Genuinely impressed with the sock idea.

Congratulations on becoming CZcams famous! Thanks for the support 😂

Stanage in winter, no crowds, bit of discomfort, topping out, nice vibes.

[@WillMcMahonClimbing]

I’ve certainly had much much colder days on stanage!

[@martincurtis6445]

Good job lads, I really enjoyed watching that it brought back some happy memories 😊
Loved the socks. Necessity is the mother of invention.
I suppose you did Queersville already? I subscribed, hope you get your thousand soon.

[@WillMcMahonClimbing]

Thanks for the support, I think we’ve done most of the three star HVS’s at the popular end, and I’m actually not the biggest fan of Queersville! We’re having to dip into the one and two star routes (I know, horrible!) to keep ourselves occupied 😉

I've got a vid of Desperation Start. Can be laid back without the finger jam.

[@WillMcMahonClimbing]

Thanks, I guess I’ll have to go back and do it next time

[@zvillagepeople3196]

You've got Desperation as E1 6C in your video caption my dude - think it gets E1 6a.

[@WillMcMahonClimbing]

Thanks, I’ve fixed it, felt like 6c to my tbh

[@TG-pd3ft]

world's worst spotter!!

[@WillMcMahonClimbing]

Haha tbf I’ll blame the camera angle, it dropped off and he saved me from the rocks 😂
