V7 Hard | ★★★ Minecraft — 5 attempts - with Murray | |||||
I spent two sessions on this aesthetic boulder, first session was mostly working on the moves and on the second session, today, I got it in my second Go! Very stoked! It’s very classic climb and one of best in north Island I reckon. It’s a combination of crimp, compression, dyno and kneebars

V7 Hard | ★★ Deep Dirty Dancing Extension — 5 attempts - with Chris Hailey, Marco Lefebvre | 5m | ||||
I had a few goes for just getting the start dialed and two good goes on the line. It's an awesome and powerful variation of Dirty Dancing Extension. Recommend it! The grade stands on upper end of v7 I think. Need more traffic.

V5 ~V5 | ★★ Transverselina — 3 attempts - with Marco Lefebvre | 3m | ★★ Very Good | |||

|
||||||
V6/7 ~V6 | ★★ Reverselina — 4 attempts - with Marco Lefebvre | 6m | ||||
Very nice variation to Transverselina. I had to do couple of attempts to get the Frank's sequences right. I think this could be a v6 problem. It's easier thank Power Poku.
