David Jefferson logged an ascent 6 weeks ago.

Bogus Machismo ()

A dream come true! Started the day with zero expectations after feeling a bit of elbow tendinitis flare up, almost didn’t have a final burn as I needed to rush home to the family, then all of a sudden I was clipping the chains! Shifting to the left knee bar at the second rest was a game changer as I could actually recover properly before the back to back cruxes at the end. Beyond stoked to have completed this milestone in my NZ climbing career!

Cheers gents! Looking forward to roping up together again.

Oh yeah! I had confidence you would get it pretty quickly

David Jefferson replied 6 weeks ago.

I appreciate the confidence! It took me 22 goes, so close to my longest project to date. Could work a lot harder though!

Seems about right I would have predicted 16 goes, 95% range [9,24] assuming that 25 is your 50% flash grade.

Sounds like your model is well calibrated! Wonder how hard I could send if I gave something 100 goes 🤔?

Sadly it ramps up (unless you get better as a climber). Assuming you are currently at 50% flash on 25, then grade 31 would take 49-80 tries and grade 32 would take 106-151 tries.

Time for a season long siege of Space Boy I reckon!

Why not! You might surprise yourself. You have a feel for cave-style climbing now
