It did not spark joy

Hard to understand how this is 24.

Damn you Mikl for gluing that rock in! An excellent climb, but man that move is hard now.

Not this time but figured out right hand so won’t break finger

Almost got there, blew the 2nd move and abandoned ship to not ruin finger like last time. When I’m a bit stronger it’ll go.

Pretty happy to have stuck the main move after this, right hand slot pull on index finger very painful 😣

Real solid climb, brought back some well needed fear after not climbing outdoors for so long

Placing gear for Koop21 flash attempt. Also finding beta.

Burned myself out finding beta for reachy rail. Fell on left hand dyno.

Sent! Very bouldery but also quite technical start for a shorter person.

Was hoping to flash using the video beta but didn't rest my left hand enough to stick the crux move.... Also did it differently to both of the videos. High right foot on the rail and statically reach over with right hand. Looks like some foot holds might have broken off, I was standing on about half a 5c piece worth of rock thickness.

Flash go then figuring my own beta to the top.

Dialling in the traverse.

Went easy once I sorted out my hands. A shoe with some rubber left on the toe doesn’t hurt, either.

Two shots, two dogs with a rest each after the traverse. Need to figure out my hands.

Bit of faffing on the traverse, holding me up from the big moves. Should be good if I can get the first section dialled so I can focus on the crux.

V3 Boulder on a rope. Used LH to bump up at the crux which avoids barndooring.

Tired, sweaty, hungry. Should not have left this until end of day. Did the crux twice, just sadly not from bottom up. Changed shoes and retaped the bloody finger but too burnt out by the end of it. Will definitely tick next time! Very similar to Keira's 'Book Him Danno Murder One'.

Second go for yet another SBB (Sydney Bolted Boulder). It's really just the first 3/4 meters. They are good, though. Nice moves. For full beta: Gabriele G

2nd shot

Way harder now. Very interesting moves.

Ah, close, but no cigar...
