Awesome route! Good movement on pretty good holds. A few different ways to do it depending on height/flexibility. 100% recommended. Close on flash go but popped off throwing out right. #2go
Very cool boulder! The 6B+ part is also class! I really don't buy the 7B here tho... with the fistjam beta it's a MUCH easier line than the 7A to the left - Didgeridoo (which I'd upgrade to 7A+ if I sent it, which I didn't 😀). I'll go for 7A+ but it could be softer than that as well...
Today was supposed to be a rainy rest day after 4 days straight of hard bouldering, but we had good weather so decided to give it a go with the cheer crew in tow. Thought I had a pretty good shot at it until walking up the hill and realizing how impressively far the dyno was.
Gave it a good flash go, losing some skin on my forearm, then took a few more to fine tune the subtleties.
It all came together on the 9th try, 36 minutes later.
A full day's session last year and a serious number of tries today.... I was getting desperate as I had to leave and then SOMEHOW I found myself holding the jug.... no idea how I hanged on but I did. Tried repeating it later unsuccessfully. Supernice line and a boulder I'll always remember!!
Rite of passage boulder failed miserably 10 years ago. Today I showed up and climbed it 2nd go infront of a group of ppl projecting it like the total assholethat I am. Then I wanted to repeat it for the camera and failed about 20 times .... 🙃 finally a dude showed me better beta and I did it twice in a row... good memories https://youtube.com/shorts/r8rprwzJJA4?feature=shared
Goriak is great boulder, and also ripe for a downgrade arrived t 20:45, warmed up on individual moves and 1st try 15 min later... this was 10 min less than Magic Bus which is also prolly 7B max. Both lines are practically the same https://youtube.com/shorts/JIwUZ8ApxWg?feature=shared
Very nice line. Smth broke in the start indeed, left version is much harder. Got it in 20 30 min, 1st try after I got all the moves and did 2 3 overlaps. The plus in the grade seems excessive
If you get the left hand absolutely perfectly, you will send. It's the key hold and the confidence kicker.Great diverse line for its size. Totally action-packed!
