After recovery from her accident, Smith-Gobat began racking up a string of sport climbing and bouldering accomplishments. Starting in 2002, Smith-Gobat made FFAs of many New Zealand-based bouldering routes and won the New Zealand National Bouldering Series in 2002, 2003 and 2004, and the Christchurch Indoor Bouldering Series in 2005. By 2007 she was climbing up to 8b+ (V10/5.14a) level routes, including a first ascent Heaven/ Little Babylon (8b/8b+) in Milford, NZ. By the late 2000s, Smith-Gobat was one of the leading climbers from New Zealand, male or female, as the first New Zealander to complete an 8c level climb, with L’academicien in Ceuse, France.
Despite falling short of the goal, Harrington and Smith-Gobat free climbed two of the four remaining pitches and felt that, even with the poor weather, they had been very close on a third. Harrington later wrote that she believed “the crux pitches could go,” setting up a possible return trip for the duo. However, as of 2019, both Harrington and Smith-Gobat were focusing on other goals, with no public plans for another attempt on Riders on the Storm.

Smith-Gobat became interested in attempting to break the women’s record for climbing speed on The Nose after hearing how slow the old one was. “I first started thinking about doing it when the women’s record was 12 hours, basically because I felt that this was almost an embarrassment to us.” In 2012, she and partner Chantel Astorga set a new record with a seven hour and 26 minute climb of The Nose. They then linked to Half Dome, becoming the first all female team to complete the linked climb in under 24 hours (at 20h:09m). Smith-Gobat also broke the mixed-gender record for The Nose, finishing it in three hours and 29 minutes with partner Sean Leary. By the end of 2012, between Salathé, a FFA of Australia’s iconic Punks in the Gym (8b+) in October, 2012 and the Yosemite speed records, Planet Mountain would describe Smith-Gobat as “certainly one of the world’s leading rock climbers.”
