Description

Nip Slip climbs the cresting wave Arete to a transition out on the face to super aesthetic boulder moves that then leads you to overcome a topout bulge.


if there is a German word for super-tech this would qualify. Satisfying and wildly sustained teetering between skill, boldness, and power difficulties.

Nip Slip shown with the Dyno autobelay rigged up on it! Fitting for the huge deadpoint or dyno in the middle of the climb. The top is tricky and marginal - a deck from up there would be a bad one!
