Ask the smokin i' Duck if he ever did a recovery in one of the deep fissures?
He can tell you about a young fella who pulled a flapper the size of a potatoe chip . . . ?
Oh wait now I remember that ws his ear!

By using the search function and typing in "offwidth" and searching only thread titles I was given these results.

Thanks supertopo dudes! What do you mean "locals only" Jeremy Ross ? Warbler thanks for the ideas. What is the story with the good book final pitch and the bolts? Also I remember now seeing a good thread on owl roof and I will look into Sky.

You have to include the vomiting. I have it on great authority that the best offwidth inspires the unloading of ones stomach (or, as has been documented here on the taco, the other end).

You probably weren't intending that kind of detail, huh?

You garnered a response from Worral and Jay etc.
I'd just drop it now, and be happy I didn't write a stupid article I'd later regret.

I've never seen anyone ever write an off-width climb.

It can only be climbed .....
