Begehungen in Waipapa von Aidan Sarginson haben sport-cpr oder ascent-date

Glad I picked a climb with input holds due to the heat. Once I got through the bottom the top was cruisy Three star NI climb, two stars Waipapa

Felt like a whanganui bay climb so points for that. Fun times. 22/23

It is significantly easier than any of the other 23s at Waipapa. Even at 22 it'll be on the softer side.

Quality pitch. Would recommend doing the 2nd pitch if you're up there.

Hard smearing. If this is 22 then Popeye is 21. Could even be soft 23 as Robin felt slightly easier than this.

Slab is fun

Warm up/hanging draws on Batman

Warm up/to film Braden

Sudo grovelling in the corner down low to thuggy moves to the mantle. I'll take a climb 28 climbers struggle on. Waipapa 23 so could be 24 elsewhere

Awesome climb. Fun bottom and a good crack/slab above.

Putting up the draws and remembering moves

Worked out how to do the bottom boulder. Hot.

One of the most mossy climbs I've had the pleasure of climbing.

Cleaning draws. Much better in the shade

Warm up

Hard

Worked the top move to understand the tension required. Just need to be sure of the lower crux and it's ready for send goes.

One go to test how I felt/remember beta. Need to come back to this when I'm not jetlagged.

Got all moves this session. Middle is dialed with the two hard moves being hard (duh) A contender for my first 27

Putting draws on for Kiera

Got surprisingly far accounted to all the on lookers. Super cryptic climb that would require some goes just to figure out the body positions

Had a go to look at the moves. Had it to the last bolt clean. Felt holds and had individual moves. A lot of tension required.

Crux 1: Know what to do, can do it (thanks to finding a new foot & Kiera's suggestion of stepping though) Crux 2: Know what to do, can't do it (weak fingers) Crux 3: Know what to do, can do it

Been meaning to try this for a while. Worked middle and top.

Worked 3rd bolt which will be the crux for me. Middle/top hard but easy. Maybe first 26 if I return.

Hardest 18 I've done in a while. Foot jamming and chicken wings on a sport climb

Checking out the climb again: Crux 1: Don't know what to do Crux 2: Know what to do, can't do it Crux 3: Know what to do, can do it

Worked the multiple cruxes. One to come back for

Climbing it much better than the first time. Actually felt like 18 if you know some offwidthing and commit to the crack.

Repeat

Checking Kiera's placements

Cleaned the route and worked out the moves.

Ran out of juice just before the triangle hold in the small seem.

Fell going for the small right hand crimp above 4th bolt

Fell at 4th bolt. Worked out the top sequence better.

Scrubbed the climb down and worked out the crux

Warm up

Grovelled up and worked out the beta. Also ripped a flake off the main wall. Still climbs the same

Repeat

Cleaned for everyones enjoyment
