Ascensiones en Oceania

This, as a single pitch, is one of the best pitches of climbing in the multiverse. This should NEVER be broken up into two pitches: why spoil a perfect pitch? I would have chopped the superfluous midway anchors during my onsight free solo but I forgot to bring my crowbar that day.

Good and sustained

2 or 3 cruxy moves, one blind dyno makes this one a really good line

oh gawd 😄

Longer and more pumpy than tuscan. Great line deserves more people on it.

Belle voie, aérienne, pas de grande difficulté un pas de bloc au début et ensuite juste la conti. Pas mal de tirage.

Shit shit shit I’m so scared

I’ve tred this clean a billion times now but I have to run out the low crux because it’s too pumpy to place gear until I get to the first rest . God damn. Trad climbing is so scary

Getting ready to lead something is actually scarier than the fricken lead itself

Also after years of trashing people for wearing gloves, I have to wear proper rubber aid jammies for this as it feels like my skin is tearing apart. Crap

Pieced this one together in a single session thanks to a lot of sage advice from Coach Phil. Technique and micro adjustments made a huge difference. A fun dyno!

Feeling pretty confident for when everything line's up perfectly. Need to be more consistent if I want to actually do it. Mental more than physical at this point. I feel like I've 'learned' how to fall on the crux because I've done it so much

Classic compression

New highpoint (falling off matching hands on campus rail) and some refinements to the rest before the crux (great to brainstorm options with the team!). I think it's a question of belief and aggression for the campus moves now. The top was hilariously wet.
