Ascents in Flat Rock having Beta

Hard...right slopey pinch/crimp is bloody terrible.. next time!

This is wildly cool, happy to feel strong on the moves, crux catch remains untouched unsurprisingly

Sickass dyno

Great dynamic problem!

Super duper big moves!! Every attempt draws the holds ever closer, but will have to leave it till next time.

a proud moment ... I found it to be a fair bit easier than other hard climbs I was trying but will leave it at 10 to keep everyone happy

Super sick

Got the first move dialed but being close to 200 pounds makes it hard to move off these crimps.

The dyno is starting to feel better, but the first move still eludes...

Good working session!

Tickled the jug twice, but needa give the dyno a little more beans. Very surprised to get so close to the send and stoked my finger feels fine on it. Next time...?

First move and match feeling cruisy now. Near end of session, I figured out I need to get more lateral momentum to make the dyno and ended up wrapping hand around the sharp as hell jug first try, but was not ready to latch. Feels painfully close, but could also never go (dynos are so fun). May put it on ice for a while and get on some stuff that doesn't destroy my skin and forearms for the rest of the weekend.

Managed to get the first move. Left heel toe cam was key.

First move feeling pretty cruisy, the dyno still very unlikely. Tempted to just dyno to the pinch instead so i can leave this cursed line for a while.

So close! Hop I can come back to this. Just couldn't latch the jug perfectly...

Snubbed the flash..2nd go

So close. Latched the last hold and swung off

Closest I have felt on this beast. Powered out pretty quickly, but may be time to start giving it a few burns every time I am out

felt really hard till it just went, yay

Psyched to have joined the club 🤠

ticked within 20 minutes of trying. my first v10 but seems a bit soft, still a sweet line though.

Glad to snag the 2nd ascent of this crimpy number over 20 years later. Cool journey with this one, requires a bit of clock beta off the one good foot before blasting to the second last hold of Epsilon Crack.

Would say its more like V11

Went pretty fast going for the left pinch beta

First move and setup for the dyno done, but no chance at all at the dyno.

Can get first move 80% of time but fail to jump to jug

Can reach first move easily just need some more power to stick it

After years of trying to go to the jug, decided to try the popular pinch. Stuck it second try in iso and went first attempt from the ground. Feels substantially easier than going all the way out to the jug.

Low pinch variant

Really fun. Too tired to do much with it though

Came close to working this out in a session, what a banger of a climb!

Full circle

Awesome line

Feel as though no one knows this exists? Got some interesting looks walking through West Flank with two pads. Got very close to sticking the dyno, but took too much time to figure out the movement for it and the pocket is pretty sharp (RIP skin). Amazing line and one to come back to... eventually.

All the moves worked out now, 25, V9, 26

Lead top section in one section.

Progress - finallylinkage of the crux 6m section. So stoked.

Making slow progress, was tired this day, try again in May.

Getting a little closer each time, made a link from mid crux to the top

Found more beta for last move of the crux

Really good link again.

Holy shit, found beta to statically do the first crux move.

FFA. Seven years and countless days in the making. Bushfires, multiple surgeries, broken bones, Covid and it finally went down.

I'm too weak for this pocketey nightmare. Super fun to try though

Great route. Pockets are better than they look from the ground

Made it to the 3rd bolt but couldn't clip it so down climbed and stick clipped it, worked out how to clip it and carried on to 4th bolt, played around here for a while eventually getting into the first pocket and going up to the second, next time aiming to hit the first pocket clean and make the move to the second pocket (may need some stronger fingers though?)
