Ascents of Kizashi as Hang dog

So goooooood

underestimated the start, got flash pumped didn't hold the crux, one fall, next time

I find this super tricky. Very sequency with solid body tension required all the way to the chains. 2 dog laps.

Fuaaak, figured out but too gassed. Next time bois

Got all the moves and the start of some rudimentary linkage

Busy day at Kizashi, was one of 6 parties attempting the route. Thought I had the beta dialed in but made a few mistakes getting into the crux sequence and got flustered, then had a sit to figure out the beta. Very sequencey and very critical to have the beta dialed for the attempt.

hit the LH throw after the chicken-wing crack multiple times but never could hold it. did the crux about 5 times since I was losing a couple of metres progress every time I came off.

Quite the foot dance around the crux, but at least now I have video to refer to. Working beta through the chicken wings seems to be RH crimp + LH crack sidepull to move RF into crack, bump LF up to the highest of the 3 footholds, RH to crack layback, bump RF up, swing inline with crack to switch LH to gaston, bump RF up again, then RH to left side of crack, then high LH is reachable.

Also have to remember the RH crimp for the anchors is much better than the LH thing.

Whittled down to two punt spots. Held on too lightly and wanted to save energy = fell off the powerful move :S

Felt really solid and had a few good links. It’ll go soon

Great climb, one frustrating foot slip and a mis read on the last move other wise went well, hopefully next time.

I think i left my shoes at the base in a hasty pack up, if anyone see them it would be most appreciated if i could get them back! (Solutions due for a resole on the toes)

Rested at every bolt but sweet movement

Three shots. One day.

Onsight lost due to a foot slip, doh! The final move to the anchor would have gotten me anyway. Found some nice high heel beta because that undercling was bleugh

Three more laps. New high point and one drop to the top. Soon

Reccy lap. Stumped by the top crux, worked out two insecure betas and finally a third secure one. Funky movement and hold selection.

Spat off at the elevator door section due to poor beta. Worked out some better techa's.

Second session on this beast. 1st attempt could not pass the first crux… again 2nd attempt figured out the beta for the first crux and the top crux felt ok once you know what to do 3rd attempt trying to link but fell on both cruxes. Awesome challenge!
