Ascents in Diebesloch as Pink point

The route starts fluffy, with juggy climbing and a good sitting rest in the upper hollow.

Continuing up the flake is a pleasant stroll (assuming you find the good holds). However, once you reach the end, a brutal, angry 3 move moonboard boulder awaits. If you survived, a nice undercling traverse and a ca grade 5 dihedral get you to the anchor.

To my surprise, I sent #2ndgo while trashed from b&b. Much easier than b&b imo, but that might be because the short crux suits my style and the rest is not sustained.

Steep, thuggy, athletic, wonderful. Easily the best route I've climbed in this style.

The route starts off with a bouldery, core strength crux at bolts 2 to 3. As usual, good foot placement is the key. Afterwards, things do get easier while still demanding endurance. A long move to a sloper at the 4th bolt is the usual post-crux kicker and two sloper edges above the last bolt are the final serious hurdle.

I almost sent this 2 years ago, falling at the move from the final sloper edge. Ever since, i always wanted to get the proper send, but a combination of bad conditions and a serious long-term injury kept me from going for it.

So sending while tired and angsty from 1.5 rainy days of terrible conditions and fruitless attempts was... awesome 😎

Awesome route with variety (wall, dihedral, overhang). After the photogenic double knee bar rest comes a tricky 3d crux that went quite smoothly once I figured out how.
