50 Lazy Instabro classics

What’s the approach like for the first and second flatiron?

climbing freeway and then posting it on insta fits this list, but the first is fun and classic and aesthetic (deserving of some respect imo)

Horseman. (Gunks)

Seed ideas (keep in mind these can actually be good climbs)

Corrugation Corner

Scarface

Plumbers Crack

Iron Man Traverse

Nutcracker

Serenity Crack

I'm pretty sure gym bros will have hard time control their bowel movements, let alone their limbs on the first pitch on serenity crack

Number 1 Super Guy. That Noah Kane video of him pretending to flail while clipping on this hurts my heart every time I see it.

But no one has actually looked cool on freeway. Except for Puff. 

Ancient Art
Yin and Yang

Both maybe more than 20 a minute approach? But so is Corrugation Corner so deal with it.

Shark Fin Arete (x3)

Ancient Art (x2)

Legs dangled off the HD Diving Board (while leaning backwards) (Ooops...that breaks a qualifying rule...)

Steve’s Arete!

Here’s my shark fin arete(x4) contribution 

For my new England friends:

Oosik, 12a at Farley

and

The Dangler, 10a at the Gunks.

Ancient Art (5.10-) near Boulder, CO.

Great Escape, Shagg Crag (approach is slightly too long but it’s a 5.10 with permadraws so that balances out)

Playin Hooky/Young and Rackless

Dangler/High E

Owl Rock

Insert local v0-3 highball here (or for bonus cred, a v4-7 with a 2 move crux near the ground that allows you to claim the grade despite 20’ of 5.8 above)

I will shamelessly admit I love all of these sort of climbs. Max reward, minimal effort, minimal stress? Sign me up

'Potato Chip Rock', Woodson

Well hell, we might as well include a route at Pinnacles National Park. There's a classic, classic 5.4 there called Photographer's Delight.

One can get to it in 20 minutes if hauling buns.

Here's Brian on it - note how he's on top of a 1,000 foot high, free-standing, narrow spire?

CCK

Gunsight

Moby Dick

Edge of a Dream and Boardwalk, Ship Rock

Most of Artist's Bluff in Franconia Notch(ego boost from startled tourists at the topout as an added bonus)

Maybe Blind Prophet Lite, Pilot

I'm sure there's a few at Rocky Face that would qualify if you frame the picture right.

Optical promise at heuco?

Lol what? In what way? I wouldn't consider any of the trad/'sprad' routes at Hueco (IE everything but the ~4 well-bolted 5.9-10s) to be 'lazy instabro' routes, much less the 11's, unless they've been tightly grid-bolted since my last visit. Soft, maybe. Spicy? Definitely. 

Everyone I know who's climbed the full length 11s on that buttress onsights 5.11 trad/12+ sport. 

Toe Jam
The Eye
Double Cross
(Most anything in Jtree since the Instacrowd is totally like 2-3 hours away)
