Nice moves! Waaay too tired to try this clean today, but super glad I got on it. Unfortunately despite the consistent wind the holds felt abysmal. Grade-wise for bouldery routes it felt on par with Wild Austrian, but easier than Elskling. There’s a really clutch left kneebar at the jug break that drops the grade into 7b+ instead of pumpy 7c. One giant V5/6 boulder.

Epic! Watch out for some choss in the final underclings moving into the headwall above. The cave felt a little manky today even with a good wind.

I was fighting for my life on this thing! Felt like truly onsighting with zero chalk and really abstract holds. The movement at the crux is superb.

2nd go?!! I’m in total disbelief of what just happened. Like…how? When I first tried 3 weeks ago I needed 2 days of rest JUST from going bolt to bolt. Maybe the most onsight-able of the grade, anywhere.
Definitely soft, given that I’ve never even done a 7c+ clean. This would MAYBE get 7c/+ in other Balkan countries like Romania or Serbia…but idk where else you can climb a 40m monster roof with 28 QD’s, with moves no harder than V3/4. If you’re fit for this style, it’ll feel like a marathon 7c. Anyhooters, grade is the least important thing about this climb. 1000 stars. |
|||||||
7a ~6c+ | ★★★ DNA | 20m | ★★★ Mega Classic | ||||
Holy crap that was one of the best routes I’ve ever done. A jungle gym on tufas. 7a is pretty generous…if you get all the kneebars it’s no harder than 6c+. If you suck at kneebars then this will probably feel 7a+. Extending the last draw is extremely helpful, and damn-near impossible to clip unless you get the kneebar.

What a hoot! My longest-running Kalymnos project…I put 6 sessions total into this rig, 5 of them in May/June hoping it would be my first 7c.
Six months later it became my 7th of the grade, on my first try of the day! Huzzah!
If this route didn’t have a cave rest before the final headwall it would be 7c+ all day. Not the easiest 7c I’ve done, but also not the hardest. |

2/3rd’s of this is pointless scrambling then you finally get some business near the end on smooth holds. Not bad, but not great either.
