So after a little setting at the gym my friend and tormentor of souls , Brendan Aiken and i went for a little Kloof session . After a little first try jitters Brendan sent the classic "Sequential" 12.a . Then i sent (#9)Poly Gap 12.a which was not classic but still worth the moments of shear terror involved in the upper 11 section. After a speed session at Kloof we bailed out of the oven to the west face of the Bastille which was windier than something that is really windy. Anyway we climbed (#10)"Sunset boulevard" 11.c which is consensus 11.b . this route is absolutely classic, it's only drawback is that it is a sport climb. ( the route is pictured on the left with brendan hooking it up)
