Fair enough :) For what it's worth, I would say most climbers would love to see someone tick something they've worked on regardless of difficulty! Best of luck with the next project.

I think you'll thoroughly enjoy it!
Stoked! Did you get a video of your send? SHARE THE JOY MATE!

The real question is: Was it a dab?!
"Only for 60-degrees of hell π₯π₯π₯π₯π₯π₯" @ 60Β° on the #kilterboard. Great climb. Supposed to be 7c/V9 but matching the undercling removes the hard bit. I would say V8 with matching.
I ripped out the terrible and replaced it with some old cheesy music.

Another fun (and rather showy) #kilterboard problem called "Key Collision". This was at 45Β° and is apparently a 7c/V9. Took a few shots to learn the movement. 3 stars! #bouldering #climbing

A savage reminder that you can not, and should not, trust arbitrary people to belay you (or anyone you care about), regardless of their experience or credentials (pro climbing coach?!).
Belayers should never be complacent when they hold the life of another person in their hands.

This is one my fav climbing videos of recent times. And Nathaniel is such a likeable dude.

11.02.2025 23:33 β π 1 π 0 π¬ 0 π 0I suck at slab, so climb overhung and "face" more often, resulting in me rubbing toes against the wall as much.
Lifehack: less slab, more overhangs π
Also, if possible, hit the outdoors. Real rock is a bit more forgiving than abrasive indoor walls.
For what it's worth, I started climbing at 38 years old and have never regretted it. A stack of the climbing community joined the sport to get over their fear of heights as well. You'll at least learn to deal with the fear.
Give it a try! I'm sure you'll enjoy it.
"Diagnosed with steez" @ 40Β° on the Kilter Board. Banger of a V7, with a brutal last move. Probably harder for the shorties! #kilterboard #bouldering #climbing

I have to admit it feels soft for the grade even if you avoid matching. No matching certainly makes it spicier.
Great climb though, recommend giving it a go if you're a kilter nerd!

Ah yes, the "donkey vote". A classic dickhead dodge maneuver!

But now, getting "thanks for being a fucking legend" in a card from my kiddo is THE PEAK of success.
