Another night in gowanus

Midweek BKB session by my lonesome, though I did run into Brett and Jill there. Just wanted to get a little moving in to burn off some holiday sausage.

4xV0
3xV1
2xV2
1xV3
1xV4
1xV5(f)

Pyramid up, no time for the step back down but a good warm-up focusing on footwork. V3-4 on the steeper wall, felt pretty good to hit it before my arms were completely burnt.

Worked a few V5s with some progress but no send. One was a problem that g and I worked before (and he sent). Starts with two hands on a good hold, right foot out. R hand up and out to a crimp and L hand to a neighboring vertical sloping pinch, then R hand throw far up and out to a jug, move feet up left and L foot pull to reach up and out for a small crimp while locking off right. Pinch felt much better though it may have been better body position; kept missing the throw for the L hand, think I need to do it more statically. Kept missing the final move on another problem too, but I think that one just needs more dynamic commitment.

Gonna take M there this weekend for a (re)intro to climbing...
