Spinal Tap
Mar 14, 2025 · Lead / Fell/Hung. x2 attempts. First attempt went so well and I fell being indecisive about clipping the last bolt. Second attempt, was so frustrating - felt strong and then just could not clip bolt 5 with my left hand - it was facing right and I think I really need it to be facing left for a smooth clip. Wasted all my energy on that and then whipped, then just led to the top anyway to dial beta. Merg. Feels so close though. May need to skip the last bolt :/

Mar 13, 2025 · Attempt. Flailed all over this today but got all the moves again. Fresh off redpoint attempts on spinal tap.

Tomb Raider
Mar 11, 2025 · Attempt. Filler episode, another beta dialing sesh with Owen on belay. First time making it to the clipping stance for the 3rd perma, but couldn't find a good stance to clip from while pumped. I think I figured one out (undercling with both hands, right foot way out to the chalky jug on the ledge, left foot on a nub). Then fell all over the last move which is really easy because I was throwing a few inches too far left. Once I threw to the right spot I got it easily and actually was able to go all the way to the crimp instead of having to hit the sloper intermediate. Also figured out a great clipping stance for the anchors (do one extra move right to the huge jug). All in all, ok progress, bit underwhelming but it's coming together!

Spinal Tap
Mar 11, 2025 · TR. w/ Owen, Kenny. Wow! Totally was expecting to hang all over this like last time, but actually cruised up. TR, but still. Might need to iron out the clipping stances, but this will absolutely go in the next few sessions, going to give it a solid rip the next time.!

Bone Daddy
Mar 11, 2025 · Lead / Redpoint. True to my word remembered the hidden jug on this climb and sent lol. Good warmup. Little pumpy actually but great rock.

Mar 2, 2025 · Lead / Redpoint. w/ Emma, dayflash! V happy about it, thank you past me for the beta on the previous tick hahah. Man, this climb is so good :) Black totem in the crack. Emma killed it with only a fall at the crux and the mini roof (on lead!!) but got the moves easily with beta, she'll definitely send next time
