K and I were at Coles tonight. We first did a pink (about V1), followed by an orange (about V2), both of which we downclimbed. Whites (V3-V4) gave a us a serious hard time.
We worked 3 of them (blue on white, orange on white, and solid white), each for a long time, and I could only finish the third one (albeit with the ugliest sequence). The second one was not as hard as scary, and I had to back down.
To finish the evening we worked a red (V4-V5, green on red). We couldn't finish it but got close, 2 (scary) moves short of the end.
We definitely have to go back more often, especially now that there are new holds.
Warmed up with 3x10 steep wall lockoffs and a little easy vertical treadwall.
ReplyDeleteThose problems were quite stiff, actually, and Guillaume was climbing much better than me. A lot of the difficulties were big moves on small crimps and really crappy slopers.
New holds eh? What a concept.
ReplyDeleteYeah, but the new holds are greasy and chalky, same as the old holds. Contact strength...
