Surprised myself with a send of this one after 5 days off from the flu. Maybe losing weight, even from sickness, makes you send. One of the most technical (that is to say, not strength or finger reliant) climbs I’ve had the privilege of trying.

Third ascent.

8 years later. With campus-board beta because my span is slightly too short to keep good tension on the low feet. Amazing how there's so many different ways to do the boulder dependant on one's body type, each providing similar difficulty and top-tier nuanced movement. Proudest send so far. [2]

Quartz 8B+ Boulder | worked 23rd Aug 2024 8B+/8C
First ascent.

The start hold broke making the problem significantly harder.

Post-break FA. The Jade of Lincoln! Start hold almost completely broke off, forcing a different starting hand beta involving a right hand one finger full crimp on a tiny flat hold. The first move is now a dynamic throw into a half pad left hand 2/3 finger mini pinch. The move felt much harder than the Jade move and is certainly one of the hardest moves I’ve ever done. Probably one move v13 into v11. Thinking V14/15 [3]
