The Fury is Back...

Holding up the Auckland end, the Fury had a strong weekend in the central North Island. After a early start of 12pm from A-town the Fury and his Lackey (aka JFM) arrived at Mangokewa at 4pm... Once roped in, the Fury took only 40min to destroy FLY (28) on his second go; I also managed to slime my way up the wall after the fury on my second shot.

Making short work of FLY, the Fury and Lackey moved on to the next route, Ahl-i-Najasa (28), put up by Ryan VH. The Fury was in need of rest thus the Lackey headed up for an on-site at the route; Epic fail!!!! Once the draws were on the Fury had a red point and fell near the top, and quickly decided to move to the pub.

After a boozy night, the Fury started the day early with coffee, and the news paper, while Lackey cleaned up the tent, and got all the gear together. 9am rolled around and the Lackey was back putting draws on a 20 as a warm up for the Fury. Disregarding the Fury's wishes the Lackey had a burn on Ahl-i-Najasa and pulled a 3rd shot send out of his arse; 40min later the Fury brought the fucking noise and dispatched 3rd go also.

After bringing the noise so hard, the Fury decided it was time to back off the gas and go and whip out some easier routes. The Lackey did as he was told and epic failed on an on-site of Revenge of the killer bikini vampire girls (26), put up by Steven King . Disgusted with the Lackey, the Fury fucked that shit up with a flash of the route; the Lackey wormed in a second shot for good measure. Next, the Fury took pity on the Lackey and threw some draws on a Kukicha (26), put up by soss master Ivan. V. As normal the Lackey struggled his was to a 3rd shot send of the route followed by 4th go send by the Fury.

By this point, 3pm, the Fury had decided that he needed no more training, and the rest of the routes in the area were to piss for him, the Lackey disagreed... The Lackey made a final pathetic second shot send of Bonsai (25), put up by Ivan V. The send was nothing short of a disgracing screaming, whimpering attempt the whole way up the route.

What should be taken from this post, 1. be aware... the Fury is back and making it fucking rain again! 2. Mangokewa has some great short bouldery routes on fun limestone routes. 3. Finally... I don't care if you are climbing 18 or 30, Aucklanders get up, get moving, and get climbing!!!
