Ace of Spades 9a+ Lead | did not finish 9th Jun 2021

Sean was tantalisingly close to flashing the line, falling a couple of moves from the end of the hard climbing.

Devilution 8C+ Boulder | worked Jan 2024
First ascent.

Keenan Takahashi commenting on Sean's ascent:

It is hard to explain without a full conversation, but I truly believe this first move is top 5 hardest in the world right now. It's also a bit unique because the feet are quite high and bunchy, so it suits shorter folks a bit (generally rare for the upper end of hard boulders, at least currently). Time will tell but I feel like this one is certainly one of the hardest of the grade and would not be surprised by an upgrade by future ascensionist(s). So yes, Sean may have climbed V17 in two sessions.

Lucid Dreaming 8C Boulder | worked Dec 2023
Seventh ascent. 5 sessions.

Regarding the grade I thought this thing was hard. Significantly harder than any V15s I've tried and I think in a good style for me. [1]
