Climbing at The Peak District and sending The Spider, 8a

The Spider 8a
Rockfax Description
A major route tackling the roof at its widest point gives good moves separated by decent rests and the odd bit of dodgy rock. The best positioned sport route in the Peak! It is usually done in one huge (40m) pitch but then lowered-off in stages.

Just been on this. That crux is way harder than V4 - you’re too strong bro 🤣

Seen this in the guidebook and thought it looked mega, nice send! You made it look super simple!

Nice one, Kris. Really clear video of a Peak classic.

Stefan Rutherford for some reason I can not see your comment on here. Thank you so much and I'm glad you like the video. The crux is at 4 min 7 seconds, I'm 5 foot 7 but I do have +6 inch arm span. Climbing is easy to get to the crux and you can easily put the draws in under the roof to work the crux moves mate, get on it :)

Your arms must have been on 🔥🔥 ! That’s such a long route, and the crux at the end? Amazing mate, congrats! 🙇‍♂️

Always wanted to try this route, but have been little bit intimidate by the length and the roof. Looked at it every time I passed going to Embankment or Cornice. You said that the crux v4? Is that not a little bit to easy for an 8a route?
