How to do an A0 Pendulum
|
So i really want to climb Whats My Line 5.6 A0 in Cochise Stronghold. |
|
I would think that the easiest option is to pendulum, then run it out for a while on the chicken heads until you are a reasonable distance above the pendulum. once you put your second on belay, take all the slack, and she can do a controlled swing over to the heads. If you dont want to run it out 2 ropes would work as well. she can also lower out from the bolts in until she is in line. |
|
I like the 80' runout on that climb after the pendulum. Good luck. |
|
Hope this helps. Not exact, but should be close. |

It's not too difficult. Build a gear anchor in the corner. Climb out to the bolts, clip one, and have the belayer lower you down to the chickenheads. |
