Trainspotting (sds)

Colins Boulders
There must be a hundred different ways to climb this, but however you choose to do so, it has interesting holds and one of the only compression/ tight heel hooking lines I've climbed in Hong Kong.

Small holds and shallow/sharp pockets makes this line a fairly easy one once you know what you're going for and how much of your pad you can get on it. Not a give me, and certainly more demanding on the fingers than the 'soft V7' would suggest.

Surprisingly fun variation if you get bored of the 'main' lines at the roof!

Who's downgrading all these problems! (strong guys...) Felt reasonable and besides a fairly tough first two/three moves, the rest is flowy.

Enigma left

Shek O
Not an incredibly meaningful variation, but true to it's name, you just move slightly left compared to 'Enigma'. There is certainly possibility for a direct line even further left...

Enigma

Condition dependent because of the small crimpers, but if you find a nice cool day at Shek O, this one is well worth the effort.

Kung Hei Fat Boy

Shek O
I think a lot of people struggle with standing up out of the sit start, but the movement on the line is top tier, and there's a very exciting finishing move to the jug.

Locked and Loaded(sds)
7B
Boulder
at
Shek O
Much better than the stand Lok and Load, because it just naturally feels like the 'truer' line. One move wonder, and it's not the slap that's the wonder, but the set up to jump into it.
