When I try a 10a,could take me all day.I get pumped off the bump n' hit the floor tryin to pull that dang figure four.Gotta take,when I hit that flake,cause holdin that next slope,for me is a big nope!I be yellin like Alex honnald and flailin like old McDonald,I mean I guess it's some gneiss schist,but I just cant jam my fist.Think you can climb like me,first you gotta rhyme like me,My beta's so bad,it's really quite sad,i make a 5.10b,look like a 12d!But dats cause you see,nobody climbs like me

● Upstairs
Jul 19, 2026 · Follow. w/Kevin, who's second piece alpine just came off while he was kinda cruxxin(!)(!). Then, about 1/2way he found the top of the death block. Stuggled but made it up the rest! When I went up, I found the death block was taller then kevin thoguh - most of the 6' fin between the left crack and right crack/wall. Super sketch, wobles an inch or two when you touch it. Kevin had used it to, and had a cam against it(!). Def would never do again.
