● Way of the Gun (sit-start)
Jun 16, 2023 · Send. Feels V9 with the left heel beta, but this is a very specific box. I'm 5'10" with +2 ape and it took all my reach to stay on the low right foot rail and hit the crimp. An then there's the dyno beta... not for me

● Jason and the Arguenuts
Nov 20, 2022 · Lead / Onsight. I felt like this was harder than any 12a I've done recently, including the worlds hardest 5.12. It may just be a hard onsight which feels easier with the right beta? I felt like I did everything wrong and barely hung on through multiple cruxes. Really good route, but the risky falls took away some stars for me. I would say it's definitely easier as a DWS.

● Distant Early Warning
Nov 6, 2022 · Lead / Redpoint. Very close to onsight but I needed to make a slight adjustment to keep my feet on through the crux. 2nd go. Low end 12c IMO since the crux is not sustained, but very cool movement nonetheless!

● Sticky Situation
Oct 29, 2022 · Lead / Redpoint. Way easier than the world's hardest 5.12. Not sure why it's a B really. Bicycle the roof or you're missing out!!
