Ascents in World as Hang dog by Ben Armstrong

Pretty satisfied to get all the moves.

Thesarvo suggests that it goes free at 21. Seems way harder then that though. Quite an aesthetic and sustained line.

This line has serious classic potential (after a bit of cleaning). Sustained and varied with several awesome cruxes, but way harder than advertised. Felt at least as difficult as Ultrasound.

Super hard for a 21.

Pulled on gear. The crack is very uneven inside making cams annoying to place and jams awkwardly deep. There's also a bunch of really distracting flakes on the face which are tempting to pull on, but not at all solid. There's a fine line between good offwidths and bad offwidths. This is definitely one of the latter.

Wowee. The crux had better protection than I'd imagined, but it certainly wasn't any easier than I'd imagined. Classically bizarre awkwardness. No need for any gear bigger than a #3 or 4 (take tonnes of #2's though).

Only 7 or so meters of hard climbing. Nasty little finger locks. I was slightly concerned about the welfare of my digits if I were to fall.

Super tricky down low.

Contrived but okay moves. Also seems stupidly hard for an 18.

Hard...

Another spanking from the old bastard. Centimeters from the top jug.

My first attempt at an OW invert. Apparently the start can be face climbed, but that would spoil all the fun.

Looks like an intimidating lead. Multiple cruxy wide sections.

Hilarious single pitch adventure climbing. Everyone should get on this.

Pretty stark and uncompromising. Steep hand jamming lower down, followed by an ever widening slot. You'd want some truly huge pro for a lead.

Potentially the best multi-pitch I've ever done. Top and bottom pitches are both very good in their own right, but the money pitch is unbelievable. Steep, technical and well protected with rests when you really need them. Stunning to look at from a distance.
