- Well we finally did it. We 've walked past this climb for years, saving it until the day that we thought it was possible to achieve an onsight. Maybe the best climb at Millstone Quarry in the Peak District, this is Regent Street E2 5c 3 stars.
A small crack climb, leads to a technical crux past a jamming block. Further crack climbing until the roof is reached. Then a tricky traverse to a good ledge. Finish up the excellent final crack on finger jams to the finish.

Great video, and lovely to see a climbing video where the climber doesn't look as though he's got every move wired. The outcome was unknown while watching this one. Good job!
My hands were sweating like crazy watching this!
same dude
This is likely your best episode! I could literally feel, that you were on the edge... GREAT.
That is a real nice comment. Thank you for watching and we hope to make more video for you soon.
Real shame you guys haven’t put out any new content lately
Great video, great effort, nice to see (and hear) “everyday” climbers pushing themselves and giving it everything.... thought when I heard the ambulance in the background that was a bad omen 😂
Your videos really portray the stress and relief we go through trad climbing
SO STOKED!! Awesome to see you go up it, congrats! Great effort, angles..keep it up, for me the best episode so far!
Cheers Kuba, getting a bit cold & dark now for us summer climbers.
I never tire of watching this video. So good!
Desperate stuff! You were on the very edge. Gripping!
Is that a timely siren I heard in the background?! Hilarious. Great lead, well done guys.
amzing guys. good to see you in that mental state and get through it amazing job. i can't wait to get back out on the grit.
What a route! Great vid guys. Looking forward to the next one.
'Shit me' 😂😂😂 classic

Really enjoyed watching this. Good fight on the crux, bravo.
Looks like such a cool route. Need to try this next time we are at Millstone
Excellent stuff guys! Sweaty palms just watching here...😆
Nice work gents that brought back some on-site fears for me that did.
good going
Brutal stuff. Great watch.
Great channel, thanks.
At 2:50 all that chalk left on the holds, no wonder these routes become so polished.
Yeah this route is super popular, but is holding up well to the traffic. Not sure polish is directly related to the chalk, although it could be used as an indicator of traffic on the route. Myself and dean had an observation. Most polish seems to be on the bottom section of climbs. We think this could be because climbing shoes hold grit from the floor and this acts like sand paper on the first few holds. Just a theory.
Epic
How this doesn't have thousands of views I don't understand..maybe people want to onsight the route first? :)
Let's see The Rasp next?!
Ha ha, Next video is close to being finished. Not the Rasp but a good one. The Rasp is super hard to record as it is very overhanging and it is difficult to get the cameras to stay put on the wall. We will do it though.
Endless Climbing Looking forward to seeing it! :)
It's probably pretty hard to climb too, haha. Hope you come to the battle ready, good luck!
Great angles loving it dudes. So good keep posting! Cheers
Cheers Chad. We have more already recorded and just needs to be post processed. Some good, some average. It is still a learning curve. :-)
absolutely brilliant.........
Thank you. We really enjoyed the climb and also enjoyed making the video.
Haha. That was a good watch. As well filmed as any climbing vid I've seen
Haha classic British bumbling style, touch and go on final crack
Would help to have helmet, double ropes, losing 3kg of redundant rack and moving faster in the harder bits.
Snuggler cam and nut placement ha . Great choice of words under stress ha
You should do Jermyn Street next. It traverses the rail on the lip of the cave, and there’s one hardish move to pull round the lip, but you get jugs, then it’s all over.
Really dramatic. Was on edge of my seat.
Reminds me of blue mounds in Minnesota
Christ on a bike you made a Monica Seles out of that.
I've been watching some of your climbs and really enjoyed watching you both well done.
I have some vids on my channel if you care to watch.....no doubt we'll bump into each other at some point !!!
Wall just left is Appletree Yard. Top marks for grunting.
great!
You guys need to start making films again
Based 😎👍
More yelling than Adam Ondra with a megaphone...
I said this before but you're climbing WAY too close to your limit to not wear a helmet. You could easily have flipped if you had fallen at the beginning of that final crack. Also, best route at Millstone has got to be either London Wall or Technical Master.
London wall might get my vote but we've not touched it. Leaving it for the on sight. Might need to get a helmet, to mount a camera. 😜
'Dude' never sounds good coming from an Englishman, good effort on the climb though
