Another highpoint. Both hands to the matched jugs after 2nd crux. Too cooked to swing into heel/toe.
The long, slow, yet continual march to the send continues. Second crux beta - Stay in the L knee for the R heel hook, the L hand intermediate, the long R gaston and only drop it out to move the L foot up to the bulb. Poor L kneescum is then available to bump in to matched jugs. Beta for big R knee rest and the L knee at the second last - hang low on both, low hands. Happy with progression and the microbeta in the top coming together. |

Rested poorly in the big knee but managed to set up well for the throw to exit the second crux. Discovered it's possible to set the L knee at the 7th with the R hand still in the undercling. Saves juice on clipping from the heel toe. Pleasantly surprised by this discovery and a wee bit pumped I promptly undercooked the next throw and fell off. Progress |

Perfect perfect conditions in the cave today. Good breeze, no humidity. Even the crux crimps felt grippy and positive. It went third shot today, no expectations just climbed fast and everything felt positive, even in full arvo sun.
As for grade, it's harder than WJP and considerably harder than Terminus. Compared to the full FC you're missing the one awkward move up and right off the shield jug and a bolts worth of easy climbing. I've not done enough at the grade to call it with certainty, but it doesn't feel a complete grade easier. Peeling off clipping the FC anchor draw a few times next week might change that perspective yet... |
