A good practice in placing shit gear. Decided to back up maybe three shitty cams with a draw in the bolt.

Feisty warm up, technical reading of the route.

Le Jardin Secret | ||||||
5 | Confidences pour Confidences - with Pieter Piens, Shana | |||||
When it turns to be so hard to find the secret garden and this is all you find... it's kind of funny. Reachy, very uncomfortable start, hard-ish for me and hard for tiny people. We started the day about 1pm and got back down around 5.. What happened? Good fun though with good people.

Massif de la Liedekerke Été Indien | ||||||
5c | ★ L'Eté Indien - with Pieter Piens | 50m, 9 | ||||
30 Years ago this must have been of stunning beauty, now the polishedness of it makes it a bit less aesthetic. The polished start doesn't allow for very elegant climbing IMO, unless you're super comfortable at this grade. But the rest of the route makes up for the (nonetheless choreographically impressive) start, and I just love long sustained routes. Pieter got the brain chills halfway through; good practice material.
|
||||||
5c+ | L'Alfred - with Pieter Piens | |||||
I had read the second pitch to be 6-something and it felt like that but maybe not anyway nice long climb, great fun. Had a chat with Vicky on the way up. The first 10m were hard for me to read and execute. I downclimbed three tims or so to a perfect rest. Eerlijk duurt het langst/de aanhouder wint?

Massif de la Liedekerke Dalle du Zich | ||||||
6a+ | ★ Le hasard de la nécessité (Le Hasard de la Necessite) - with Pieter Piens, chiara, PJ | |||||
What a way to end the day. A superb mental training because of the old school spacy bolting. I ended up chaining up at the anchor of the route right next to it, elvislegging like a ballroom dancer, but I claim this as an onsight because the real anhcor is hidden in the weeds just a meagre .5m away, with great rock around. Beautiful sustained climbing on what is now considered far too few bolt makes for an excellent reiteration of what 6a+ means when you don't feel the comfort of modern style comfort-bolting. A great reminder of my everyman's vertigo.

For all of it's slipperiness and for the ballsy traversyenot an easy five, but what a rare beauty of choreography for a line on Belgian rock. Unprecendented.

Did two laps of the 2 pitches combined. Cool route, perfect for rope solo and a good set of very hard slabwork with nice fissures alog the way to catch your breath. Did the first pitch clean the second time around, fell of on some cruxy bits on the second pitch. Was good to practice switching to grigri to retake the secod pitch from the start a couple of times. Sore feet at the end, man! Has to be a killer route to lead this.

The first pitch is kind of slippery and not to well for warming up and certainly a very messy zigzag. I felt like a crêpe myself hauling the rope in with all that friction... the last two pitches are great! Went kind of straight for the cross up top because we didn't bring the topo. Windy af.

6a | ★★ The Wall - with Matthew Browne | 25m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Redpointed it, like I was due to after rushing myself into a fall the first time round a couple of weeks back. Second time around no problem and full control. Such a nice roll, such a nice route. Cruisin'

Nice clean send, good breathing, felt super in control. The route is very severe though, I had to drop out because of a loss of balance warming up a couple of days later!
|

6b | ★ Ceda El Passo - with Pieter Piens | 15m | ★★ Very Good | |||
Managed to top rope it clean and gave it several shots in lead, but the footwork near the crux needs to be very precise. It's a nice project and I'm looking forward to a clean lead send.
