Mortal Immortal 8B+ by David Mason

David Mason has done the first boulder ascent of Mortal Immortal 8B+ on Sean's Roof and it is a great community story showing every style has it's merit. "Floodgate into Sean's Roof, 23 moves in total with the top out. One of the best in the UK in my opinion, shame about the location but handy for pad carrying. 15 sessions over 2 months." Video - I do like to be beside the roadside. Originally Jerry Moffat did the FA in 1995 of the stand start Sean's Roof 8c including three bolts. Later Mark Leach skipped the rope and as there were no crash pads it was even called the hardest "solo" in the world. In 2010, Dan Varian and Ned Feehally then climbed the stand start above pads and thought 8A+ was appropriate. Last month, Dawid Skoczylas added a sitstart and did the FA of Mortal Immortal 8c+ which later also Alex Barrow repeated. "They both climbed it as a micro route but for me it was a boulder and I had even brushed up the end, making it possible to top out instead of dropping off at the jug. Grade wise it is definitely the toughest battle a problem has given me and took double the amount of sessions that I have put into anything else. For me it feels like 8A into 8A+ with the redpoint crux being right at the end. I think the movement mostly suits me but the number of moves certainly doesn't ;) Thanks to everyone who spotted, listened to my ramblings about it and cheered me on."
