Earlier this month, fresh back from a sport climbing trip to France, Nick Moulden climbed the 'Traverse of the Gods' at Longridge crag. Nick was kind enough to go back for the cameras so we could bring you this film. The traverse is best described with a sport climbing grade (8b+) and is about 100m long!

Nice! How many people have repeated it now?

In reply to wushu:

I can think of eight including the first ascentionist. So I'd guess its probably only just into double figures.

In reply to UKC Videos:

Anyone know what the tech grade of the hardest move(s)?

In reply to Ed Brighteldman:

Not an CyL expert but I guess UK 6b for the hardest move, Font 7a for the hardest individual section(spliting it into about 7 sections)

In reply to UKC Videos: Nice one Nick.

In reply to Ed Brighteldman: 50m of sustained eng 5c with a few hard 6a = Fr8a+.. into a V6 eng 6b boulder problem... into Fr6c with an an 6a move to finish, followed by a few cool lagers.
