Leisurely climbing

Climbed with Brett, Joana and her sister Luisa at Brooklyn Boulders. Place was pretty packed, but we didn't have any trouble getting on routes. I warmed up with some bouldering, finishing a few V3s, including one that stumped me last time (crazy sidepull on a very high foot to a small crimp and a lunge to the top). I wasn't planning on toproping, but Brett convinced me to give it another try. Climbed a very nice 10+ that Joana recommended (set by MH, very crimpy and balancy). Also climbed a 9 with a campus only start. Joana couldn't quite get the third campus move, but came up with an insane heel-hook to get around it. Luisa, climbing for the first time ever, flew up some 5.6s and 5.7s. I think she takes after her siblings. I saw Brett climb a nice 12 with some neat laybacks, and he gave a nice attempt and the crazy high boulder problem (gold/black) that Kenway tried a couple of weeks ago. Made it to the last move, but ran out of juice.

The staff added some a pair of rings in the back, so we spent some time at the end going through some ring basics. Brett nearly had an aneurysm, but he did manage to get a muscle-up!

We should plan a trip here:
