Aw Man I Loved This Climb!⁠
⁠
This climb starts off with a dyno with a crappy wide pinch. You have to catch the bird beak. The first few attempts I was trying to catch it from the side. In this attempt I said F it Im going to hug the heck out of this hold. ⁠
⁠
Load and behold it was what I needed to do. Then from I did not know what to do hahahaha. After some point I knew that the two right hold were completed basura. So I finally switched to the bottom left one. From there I realized that I can actually sit on the hold. So load and behold I sit on the hold. It was really comfy to be honest with you. 🤣⁠
⁠
Towards the end the funniest part was cheering me on and telling me what needs to be done. ⁠
⁠
Then there was a send in the books haha. I love these guys to death.⁠

Cheers to many more projects to solve!⁠

Climbing is Always Better with Friends Around, ft

As you can see here this right here is rendition of our type of relationship within the 🐵 crew. Once one of us sends a climb the other one poops a send for us. 🙈🐒😂

Back to our normal schedule haha. For this climb I was having a hard time sending it. This dihedral climb is hard because my hips were tight 😂 The biggest crux to this whole climb is that you have to wrap your thumb on a jib and clamp the arete to make sure you have the right balance to move up.

The biggest fear I had was just trusting the wall to stay on the climb. Nothing is more scary then slipping just a little bit while smearing.

In the end we finally got the climb and I was pooped out of my boy Ian.

Fun Matched Foot/Hand Start⁠

I am not going to lie. If I didn't see someone else do the beta for this climb I would have most likely would not have flashed this climb. ⁠
⁠
The start of the climb requires a hand and foot match start so that you can hold both holds to start the climb. It then leads to a really beautiful pinches. Then personally the far reach was my second favorite thing to do on this climb. Lastly, the only fear I had was slipping off the pinches to get the top edge to end the climb.⁠
⁠
I really liked this climb, I hope there are going to be more climbs like this in the future. It is something different.⁠

The Volume Stabbed my Shin 😔⁠⁠

I love this yellow slab at Latitude Climbing. There is something just oh so satisfying with stepping on jibs and just sticking on them. The hardest part of this climb is just the slopper holds. When going for the side hold I had to find the sweet spot of the hold. Then when traversing to the right slopper I had a little scare on the crimp. I almost let go and lost this flash opportunity. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
In the end I love my foot work but there can be more work on my fluidity. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
ALSO as you can see at the end of the video I literally stabbed my shin on that pointed volume. Lemee tell you that junk hurt a lot!⁠⁠

This climb was a fun one that I was helping my friend on. There were so many holds everywhere that I was starting to get confused on how to get to the top of the climb.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
After a lot of fidgeting and hip stuffs we were able to get to the top of the climb 🙂⁠⁠

100th Journal Post 😁⁠⁠

Wow, this is crazy this is my 100th Journal Post. I have come a long way I think it has been about a year that I have been doing this. It honestly has been a fun time doing this.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
The best way to go out is to put one of my favorite climbs on Instagram. It just so happens that this climb was also at the Westside Showdown Competition. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
This climb is interesting because it is an under-hang climb. If anyone knows me it is that I ❤️ under-hang climbs. It's my favorite type of climb.⁠⁠
⁠⁠
This climb starts off interesting, you can't really see it but there are no foot jibs to get to the other side. So in the beginning you see me cut feet and just campus the left side. from there it was pretty easy. ⁠⁠
⁠⁠
In the end I gave my omage to with the dynamic catch at the end which just made me feel so good about the climb⁠⁠

FIRST DYNO EVER! 😊

MILESTONE 4
GRADE: V4
TOTAL ATTEMPTS: 3!

Funny commentary by

OMFG... I finally did a dyno!!! Guys if you personally know me I have been avoiding dynos because I was always so scared that my weight (218lbs when I started climbing) would destroy my shoulders or I would hurt myself.

But, this day I felt like trying and here we are! I did my first ever DYNO! MAN this was one of the best moments for me in climbing. I'm so thankful that my closest friends were there to experience it with me!

Cheers to more climbs to come and more sends to treasure.

Thanks for the support

Thank you for being a part of this moment 🙂
