Tried it at the end of the day for a potential futur project. Looks super fun and all the moves aren't too hard. Maybe more interesting than little big roof

20 | ★★ Lucky's Roof — 2 attempts - with Hyakatan | 5m, 5 | |||||
Started from the rock, didn't try the tricky looking first move. Got all the rest in one go on second attempt with draws already in, but didn't bother clipping the final anchor, just downclimbed in sections to clean.
|

19 | ★★ Fixed Steps — 5 attempts - with Hyakatan | 10m, 3 | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Nice technical climbing on the arete. Mostly quite good holds, but position dependent, requiring good tension.
|
|||||||
21 | ★★ Tits and Bits — 5 attempts - with Hyakatan | 10m, 2 | ★★ Very Good | ||||
Tried on top rope after Amanda's lead. Got all the moves, after a bit of figuring out. Some big moves off poor feet at the start, easy after that.

Back on the horse. I would be honoured for this to be my first 25. All moves go, and honestly was pretty stoked to link to the penultimate bolt. The next lil sequence is wild, and there is one move that surely is not the beta but it just might work?

Either the crux is the finish or it's going to be soft? But until I send it I truly can't say... Felt good despite very bad skin and huge humidity. Hopefully on a fresh session it just goes.

V5 | ★★★ Wish You Were Here — 7 attempts - with Hyakatan | 5m | ★★★ Classic | ||||
Working the second half, every attempt pulled on from the big horn. Finally linked it from there on the last attempt. Beta: same as last time, except once you have one hand on the jug past the sloper, get a really high right heel matching your right hand. Use that to match the jug, moving the left hand to the far left bit. Then rock up to the right using the heel and the next few sidepulls. From there you can wedge your hip in and fully recover. Remaining moves are easy, just scary to commit to (for me at least).

easily the biggest whip i have ever taken. perhaps my first true 'fat winger'©. punted from the chains onto a TEARRIBLE .75 totem that ripped. guess the only way to truly know if your piece is bad is to fall on it. yep. it was bad. If the route is 15m, I fell at least 10 of that. terrifying. caught by a delightfully small 5kn peenut tho! felt a fair bit pumpier on gear ugh
