How can an average climber do the hardest route in the world? Dave MacLeod wasn’t even the best among his fellow rock climbers in Glasgow, until a sequence of key decisions and influences catalysed his progression from an unremarkable intermediate to one of the best all-round climbers in the world. Dave shows that much of his advantage came from easily trainable skills or behavioural traits that could be replicated by any climber.

Moving the Needle is a story of the ups and downs of a struggle to answer a deep curiosity and its side effect of making the first ascent of Rhapsody at Dumbarton Rock, then the hardest trad climb in the world and the first to earn the grade of E11. Through an autobiographical exploration of his apprenticeship as a climber, the book is intended to function as a guide to transform your own climbing. Foreword by Dave Cuthbertson, and edited by Deziree Wilson.

Frank and varied. Much more than just a description of the routes he'd climbed. Fascinating.

Since starting climbing in the early noughties I've followed Dave's story from his blog to 9/10 climbers and his recent foray into YouTube. He has been a constant source of both inspiration and practical advice, from managing injuries to the neuances of training. In a lot of ways, I and many other climbers will feel like they know Dave's story, pieced together from snippets of media throughout Dave's career and in parallel to their own journey in climbing. It is testament to Dave's skill as a writer and narrator that I consumed this book in a single sitting (mostly whilst climbing of course), engrossed from start to finish. The audible edition adds something extra. Dave delivers the story effortlessly, with a closeness to the words that only he can have. 10/10 and essential for anyone who has followed Dave's journey in climbing.
