Tin Monkeys
Sep 8, 2024 · Lead / Fell/Hung. Tried after sending Tin Man. --Beta--From kneebar rest, right hand at top of side pull, left hand inverted on bottom. Walk left foot through and get very high right foot and kneebar above right hand on corner. Right hand to baby-ball-sack bad sidepull. Left hand into good undercling, fingers in slot. Work kneebar so right hip is fully in the wall, get left foot high in corner, reach right hand all the way to good sloper rail below other bolt. Pinch something out left with left and move left foot to high foot out. Bump left hand to good pinch. Work feet left and kneebar. Clip. After clipping transition bolt from left kneebar - get left foot into corner and right on high corner chip. Left hand crosses to 2-3 finger crimp. Shift weight out over the right foot and do shoulder move to get right hand on bottom flat-ish ledge. Reset feet and left hand into higher flat ledge. Work right and up till you can place good left kneebar and hands on far right of rail. Get left hand in corner hold, high left foot out and high right foot on lower rail. Cross far to ticked crimp in the crack, trust it, reset left foot and get left hand to horn. Get inverted right kneebar to rest. Big move up left, go to crimp, reset feet, big move 6" above roof out right. Move left while stemming feet to the left. Use good crimps and crack to fingerlock left hand and high right foot at crotch to stand up to high fist crack. Work up left using good kneebars to clip last bolt and chains.

Full Throttle
Sep 7, 2024 · Lead / Fell/Hung. I could see this being a fun route when the holds aren't sweating. Crazy how you can slide off of such frictiony holds. --beta-- Needs to be colder. Go out right on the jugs and make your way left to start squeezing. Get right foot up to jug and kneebar. Pull in on kneebar and bump right hand up high. Bump left hand to top of left sidepull. Step left foot through to right and get right heel hook that turns into heel-toe cam. Bump right hand up again. Left hand to highest sidepull. Paste right foot on face and put left foot on chalked ball. Stand up left hand to highest left corner. Match right up near. Get left foot a bit higher and bump right hand to good hold. Heel hook right, pinch aret with left hand, get hips higher then bump left hand to top of rail. Match right hand and bump left hand deep around left corner to sidepull undercling. Right hand goes to big hold under roof. Left hand pinch the roof edge, get left foot super high on corner and stand up till left can grab good corner far left. Stand up to jug under anchor.

Technical Second
Sep 7, 2024 · Lead / Flash. Far harder than Waimea. Very awkward in the roof with insecure feet and bad holds. Went right on the flash, but would recommend grabbing the left aret and going big to the only good hold in the roof section a few feet above the roof.

Flying Hawaiian
Sep 7, 2024 · Lead / Fell/Hung. Not my climb. Hated the beginning. Hated the stemming section that needs another bolt. Hated the last awkward pull to gain the top-out.
