has anyone climbed this recently? I got on it a few times this summer and it seems insanely hard (the crux I mean everything else is fine). I've figured out a way to do it but the move just seems too hard for 12b (feels like a v6 move) anyone have any beta on this one? Thanks David
My girlfriend is still working this one and has sent a bunch of other mid grade 12s already. I think it's just really hard. For the crux though she does a cross move with her left hand to the first super small crimp and keeps the feet low when she moves to the clipping hold. There are some good feet low through the crux moves. I think it helps as it keeps you under the crimps as much as possible, rather than pulling on them.
Wow, blast from the past, love that route! The crux always did seem hard for the grade... my beta was also a left hand cross, and I seem to remember it being all about the feet to keep it in the grade. It's been a long time, but i think i backstepped on a low right foot.
thanks for the replies! this is def helpful, gonna try the cross, I had been bumping...got rained out today so hopefully i can get back up there soon! David
