Unexpected send for sure! Holds definitely felt better than when it was warmer last year. Decided to jump back on this when a mate was having a rest working on Testostrogen. Was very surprised when I actually linked all the moves and even held the swing the first time! Hand slipped and I was off, one easy move from the end. Buoyed by this, I rested for a good 15-20 minutes and went again. Held the swing again and this time got the finish holds. Am super stoked the knee felt strong again after an MCL blowout a couple of months ago!
