Ascents of Perceptive Orators

Lead once and TR twice. Tricky start to an easier finish.

Surprisingly tricky down low

Took a hold off, that I believe may be AO's crux move. Might make it a 18/19 now. Small 3 finger crimp above the big sloping sidepull is now a sinker jug.

nice. Stitched up

Almost didn’t pull through the move between bolt 1 and 2. Once I got going again it was good again

Move between bolt 2 and 3 feels desperate for some strange reason. Not sure what but I’m doing different now.

Pretty fun, fully messed up the beta on my first attempt

Short but surprisingly pumpy!

Did the right variant beta at the top.

Good fun, bit chossy but cool moves

Unsure if the climb has changed or I forgot the beta to get to the 2nd bolt shelf. Further investigation required next session

Really enjoyedit! Second go, and then a third to clip both anchors (just clipped one in the second go). Knowing the sequence, unsurprisingly, is everything...

Stayed more right at the top to be direct more than I normally climb this.

Felt hard at first but once nailing some beta it felt decent. Strong climb with mostly good holds

took a few burns to find the beta. reckon 22 feels about bang on for the grade (or I'm missing something!)

All the moves fit together for once. Enforced lockdown rest can be a good thing?

Gonna go

Nearly clean until last section where it turned into an MC Escher painting

Right undercling at second bolt. Will got this too!
