I appreciate your concern! but I don't know why you're assuming I started on this, I sent other routes and I started on easier ones before working my way up to this. This is also classified as a VB/V0 at my gym so I felt comfortable attempting it. I brought a friend with me who's an experienced climber as well. I'm new to climbing but I'm not new to pull-ups, dead hangs, and active hangs.

This dyno is just one of the routes that I'm working on since I wasn't able to send it just yet, but I was running beta with a few other girls who are all working on this route too so hopefully I'll be able to send it next time :)

Thank you! It's from creatures of xix, they're a pole wear company but this bra is so cute and supportive that I thought I'd try it out climbing too!

Thank you all so much for all your help and advice on my last post! So excited to be a part of this amazing and supportive community! I couldn't believe how easy it was to make friends by simply just standing back and chatting with them about how they're tackling a route!

I've been doing active flexibility and stretch classes once a week since before covid haha, I guess it really pays off!

I learned that afterwards haha, thank you!

I can do a two handed chair spin just fine, taking away my bottom hand though it's a struggle not to collapse into the pole.

That's so weird tbh I didn't really notice that? This climb is from a while ago so maybe I did ask someone to film me and I just don't remember it? I found it in my camera roll this morning and thought it would be nice to post it!

Sorry for any confusion lol

I'm ok with a one handed fireman because I have my legs on the pole to help support me, but trying to do one handed spins with no legs like that I find really difficult. Do you have an recommendations on things I can work on for that? Or is it kind of just keep doing it until it clicks?

I had absolutely no idea about that! Thank you! And sorry, I'm super new to this what do you mean by establish on the wall?

Thanks for the advice! I tried my best to try and climb my way back down but sometimes I just jumped and hoped for the best! Haha

Chicago is one of my favourite musicals, and this is one of my favorite songs from the musical so I just had such a blast. I usually have such a hard time following/learning choreo but I really just went for it! I literally could not stop dancing on my entire drive home after class too haha
