Ascents in Victoria having Beta

So good. So psyched.

Found some really good beta. Finished it in a few tries. The most perfect, amazing sandstone out there!

fried fingers

Very hard.

sections

This thing is absolutely unreal. Crazy cool line and suits my style - need to come back with stronger left hand.

Yep it's hard lol

1/5 done

One of the best lines out there! Climbed it in the worst conditions. Soaking wet top out and cold, humid weather. Relieved to finish it. Not so bad once you figure out how to hold the pocket for the jump move.

Soft

Couple tries. Fit my style perfectly. Compression and a nice pinch. Psyched to climb this classic line.

Soft

Hate that heel hook at the end. Linkups in the cave in the rain! Yay!

My favorite boulder from the trip. Jumpy gymnastic climbing on a big overhang. Solo mission.

Ammagamma! Total disbelief topping out. Iconic, incredible, and always going to be one of the especially special ones for me. So cool!

Wow, got my hands on a V12! Worked the starting moves!

First time trying the moves. Couldn't do the first crux on the first crimpy rail, and the second crux matching the gaston (where people do knee bars)

Wow! Got the first crimpy rail crux now....pretty far from linking anything or getting any of the crux crux (matching slopey rail from RH pockets) but its lovely to see progress !

Wow, some realy cool moves at the start and the feet first moves into the meat of the problem are so cool! Definitely on my long-term project list!

My god! The middle section of this thing is so good! Hello, long term proj!

Radical

a delicate little number. funky moves spinning round in the roof

Hard...right slopey pinch/crimp is bloody terrible.. next time!

What a bloc! such cool moves. Got it in one short sweet session with Adrian. low end 12? Everything up at buandik is mega. can't wait to get back there

The fuck is this and why does it go

Another great one on the project wall.

Soft

wall gets sun pretty early in the day...definitely a night session boulder

Close. Will go next session.

Went and had a play on this boulder the other day but struggled to figure out which line was which. If anyone has any info let me know!

Made loads of progress on this today but broke off a huge crucial foothold at the end of the session. I think its still possible but the 2nd/3rd moves are likely harder now

This is wildly cool, happy to feel strong on the moves, crux catch remains untouched unsurprisingly

Astronomically psyched to finish this one up. I think 7 sessions in the end with the final one being a mega 3 hour night session. Used techy/shoe dependent heel beta which probably makes it low end for the grade. Regardless of grade though, so so pleased to top out one of the lines on this wall !!!

FA

Very cool movement. First 12 but it's probably soft. With a knee pad I think it'd be more like 11. Whatever the cave is sick! The echo through the amphitheater is best I've ever heard!

just playing for the photos- not really a 'dog' as i didnt do all the moves. at the risk of sounding like a knobhead, this problem actually seems very doable for down the track...

V8/9 i think. Enduro problem

V9/10. Awesome movement

Brushed but too wet.

Really enjoyed this problem. Powerful and sustained.

Cool right drop knee and right throw to a committing left drop crimp. Pad this thoroughly. We had 6 pads and managed to miss the landing zone, it hurt.

Working out the crux. Feels doable. Will definitely come back to work on this some more.

Hard...need to come back with better engaged shoulders for the deadpoint

Half of the moves done. Need to figure out how to move left to the high crimp before the dyno. Wishing for cooler temps!

This climb has been an elusive project of mine for over 3 years. Incredibly happy to have finished it today. Also did Alchemy (V10?) today although it is not on thecrag or in the guidebook

All moves bar one just after the crux... amazing line

Surprisingly good first session on this. Only 2 moves left to do and they felt pretty close. Hopefully stick them next session and then time to start making links.

Really stoked on the send. Might just be my style of boulder!

#2go punted flash. did the pinch move, traversed into amniotic world then had no idea what to do and plummeted off. devastated. did it 5 min later. absolute classic boulder. holy shit snacks the gramps is amazing

Rad movement problem

Testing the waters before cooler temps. Feel pretty confident+solid getting to high left, but will wait for condis before I start throwing myself at the deadpoint.

Need longer arms! Can reach the sidepull but didn't generate much force off of it. Might be better on a colder day with more skin.
