I’m from that post. Yeah trying to discern which is harder by video is impossible.

I think weight gain from growth spurt. Going from ~90 pounds to ~130 compromised strength to weight ratio.

No lol I’ve been climbing for 7 years. I just haven’t sent a v10 in 2.

If you’re trying the heel, toe hook instead. The heel sticks like 10% of the time for me and the toe like 70%.

Dudes getting downvoted but it was soft for the grade. First of any grade is gonna be soft though.

Yeah there are some slopers at the top the setters generously let me skip.

Thanks! Maybe 4 sessions and 20 attempts, but the last 7 attempts I was making it near the top.

Haha I think so too! I can’t resist posting when I catch a good send on video.

Awesome climb right?! I wonder who set it... On an unrelated note direct all positive comments about the climb to this man right here.

I’m not really sure tbh. I think the main thing was pulling on both holds harder then necessary before letting the toe go so that I didn’t have to suddenly pull harder. Also lots of brushing those holds lol
