And it went this time =) , not in the warmup as my fingers were still frozen at the crux, but it felt pretty good second shot, the crimp and bump to the pinch was the winner beta for the crux.

Couldn’t stick the crux. The peanut is sharp and so bad, didn’t manage to crank it hard enough to raise feet and go for the landing hold. But bumping from it to the pinch feels reachy for me, didn’t have the tension. But tickled the pinch enough to know it would be good (dammit!) Will grow some skin and come back

Another awesome day on this awesome climb, couldn't keep it together for the crux but also realised my beta for the crux isn't the most efficient, after watching Gabriele and Nodav I decided to try something different and it felt a lot better even when I was tired. Maybe next time

No chalk on the climb made it exciting! Big whip when mantling the ledge as a hold broke as I went to rock up made me punch myself in the face and throw it at my belayer. Good times 😂 would clean up nicely if it got some more action. Only did the first pitch that was enough choss, dirt and air time for me.
