31 5.12 redpoints before i turn 31
|
Im at 5/19. and from what i said on my last comment they'v been .11's more than they have been 10s haha. guess I had a little more in me than i thought |
|
That's great to read everyone's progress...sounds like there is a lot of great starts to the season & everyone's goals...i, however, have gotten a very slow start...only one down, 30 to go...will be attempting a .12b this week & hopefully get that confidence back...keep at it everyone... |
|
I like this idea quite a bit, I turn 21 in july with a handful of 12s under my belt already. I am going to shoot for 21 RPs before July 12th! |

that's great! Congrats! That picture is awesome, by the way...looks like a great climb... i Redpointed a 12a/b yesterday (finally! Been about a month since my first one). Ha, only 29 more to go. Better then 30 more to go though....Keep the updates coming! Love to hear them |
|
17 down, 16 to go. I ruptured an A3/4 pulley in my left ring finger three weeks ago so that might set me back a bit. |
|
Hahahahha I'm 40 this year and already downed one 40-ouncer. 39 to go. I set my goals low. |

Grayhghost: that route looks amazing. Is that at The Horn? |
|
Gray Ghost, Is that is the La Sals? |
|
If you want to tick a bunch of 12's, come down to AZ and check out Jack's Canyon. There, you can climb about 20 soft 5.12's with only climbing about 100 vertical feet. Sounds perfect for you! |

Ticked 45 and 46 out of 55 at Movement today. Only nine outside so far, but now that it's warming up, maybe I can shoot for 55 12s on real rock. My birthday's not till December, so I've still got a lot of time! |

3/20 Teardrop 5.13a |

Way to go John! Sonic Youth? |

At least it was a teenager, instead of Brooke. |

5/20 today |

Goals. These things are nice. Here is mine: 5.13 again by my 30th birthday (april 4). Whats the "again"? Yea so I was as strong as I have ever been this past year......at least 30 5.12s, up to .12d. And I caught my unicorn.....one and only one 5.13. And then, exactly a week after my 29th birthday, broken elbow. This required a replacement of the radial head (basically a partial joint replacement) and some ligament shiz. I am now 3 weeks out from surgery and grinding through some gnarly PT. So yea, the day of the surgery I set a new goal, 5.13 again by 30. |

Brutal. Keep your eyes on the prize and get better. |
|
You are really starting to tick them off Brendan...great job. i will be trying for 3/31 (they are coming rather slowly for me) today. 12c on isolation wall... |

I posted pretty early on in this thread about wanting to set a similar goal for myself, but I wasn't sure how this year of my life was going to unfold. |
