You may already be aware of, and be embroiled in the torturous ordeal of Redpointing already!.....

But heres a quick reminder that you have until this Thursday (19th March 2009) to get your successful redpoint completed and your entry in, to be entered in to the draw to win a Core Climbing Fingerboard!!

The Two Routes can be found on the Fivet Ten Prow; a 7b+/7c and a 8a/8a+ using exclusively Core Climbing Holds ( http://www.coreclimbing.co.uk/ )

(If you normally easily red point above the 7c/+ level the you will be expected to try the harder route in order to be eligable to claim a prize!)

For more information, please ask at reception.....Good Luck!!
