Ascents of V-Juice having Beta

Barefoot

All the bits but couldn’t save energy for the top half.

Tried to do the alternative beta with the right heel hook at the starting hold. First time trying it I managed to stick the v slot statically but knee was making some popping sounds.... So had to go the direct method after.

Stand Start

It couldnt wait a year

Just the stand start. on my third go form the sit I fumbled the top out. theres always next year

Stand

Was a bit scared of the crimpy start with my recently healed pulley, but managed to squash enough fingers on and felt pretty good. Doesn't really add much difficulty to the stand, which is already on the softer side.

Stand

Came to project the stand-start, then was astonished when I got it 3rd try of the day. Decided to give the sit start a go, and got it clean an hour later.

The extra two moves for the sit start don't really change the grade in my opinion. Being taller makes it much easier. If you're tall, the sit is probably closer to V5, if you're short, its probably V6.

Close to repeating. Should go fresh.

Stand

Stand

Stand. Building confidence.

Stand start

Stand.

Enjoyed this line, nice dynamic moves on a steep face.

Stand start

Sent it first with the stand start. And then with the sit start. Those extra couple moves at the start really do make it harder!

Yeassssssssss

Felt sooo much stronger and more solid than last season. Only a couple of attempts due to finger tip blood blister. Will go this summer.

Stand

Solid climb with some powerful moves.

Hitting it each time from the start. Need to stick it!

Got the V5 stand start variant.

Just can't link the sit to the big move.

Stand. Worked the sit. Was the first time I felt like I actually had the juice. Three of the early burns felt physically on point, just need to execute. Am hopeful for the fresh burns next session!

Laps on the stand. Linking the sit feels slightly closer!

Stand start. Got my right hand on to the v notch a few times, just need to stick it.

Worked the sit start well, getting it smoother. Struggling to catch the big move to the V. Another session or two should see it done.

Sit easy. Stand easy. No link!

The sit went a few times tonight. Just not at the same time as the stand

Was trying the sit but was fun to do a few laps on the stand too.

Stand start. Really nice climbing, especially if you get the heel it just feels real smooth techy moves on good crimps. Looking forward to trying the sit.

Running laps

Sit Start done. Super rad!! Flows so nice.

Stand start. was trying to do it static and just ended up committing to dynoing it. Sit will go in a different session.
