Chaos
Emile Esterhuizen has opened the much tried "Chaos" project at the Mushroom area at Redhill. He discovered a new sequence for the crux move, by moving slightly more right than originally intended and the problem now goes at around 7C/7C+

Roudnitska
At the newly discovered "Outer Limits" area at Redhill, Emile Esterhuizen opened "Roudnitska", similar to a shorter version of "Elfen Lied". The problem took Emile four days of attempts and is about 7C/7C+.

The Exceptionals
In Rocklands, Edvinas Šmigelskis established a new problem at the Roadside area, on the "Black Labour" boulder (just above the "Black Eagle" boulder). "The Exceptionals" 7C+ starts as for "Segregation" (the 7C dyno), but then does a big move left to a small crimp, and then climbs straight up to top out from there.

LLandudno Joe
Joe Möhle opened the bold and impressive "Zero Gravity" at Llundudno. The line involves an intimidating dyno above a slab which leads straight into the ocean below.
Previously unreported, Joe also opened the impressive off-width roof crack "Amazing Grace" in a cave in Llundudno in mid 2005, after about a year of on-and-off attempts. The grade has not yet been determined as the problem awaits a second ascent, but it's pretty tricky...

More for Redhill
The recent fire at Redhill has revealed a few more boulders with some good problems. Emile Esterhuizen opened two new lines, "Gom Jabar" 7B+ is a 14 move roof problem on sharp crimps and jugs and "Onime" 7B+ is a powerful line through a black roof.
Then, at the Mushroom area, Edvinas Šmigelskis opened the excellent "High Maintenance" 7C, which climbs the micro crimps and poor slopers to the right of "Eyeball".
