Some climbing with Begonia, Eric and Joana. I'm not a fan of the roped climbing at Brooklyn Boulders, so I convinced everyone to boulder tonight. Started off in the cave where we warmed up with some V1-V3s and worked a section of BB's grand traverse. We moved into the second room (where we ran into Tom), and Joana and I basically finished a vertical V4 (purple); we both chickened out of the last move and grabbed the ledge just left of the tape. Oh well. I managed another V4 (camo) with a nice side-pull on tiny foot jibs, a really fun V5 (red; really a V4) that had a great leg hook that led to a very balancy finish, a vertical V4 (purple) with a scary finish, and a great V3+ (red/white) that involved a nice bit of arete climbing. Joana worked all of these with me, easily making it to the last move of the V5, and starting another V5 (yellow) full of gruesome finger pockets. Eric and Begonia tackled a V3 with a hard opening move; everyone did it differently, kinda fun.
