Ascents as sport by Zac Schofield

Glad to finally not fall off this. Went super comfortably as the warm up just had to do the correct beta.

First lap up felt like a jug run, then just had send attempt nerves and climbed awfully the next couple attempts.

So good to finally send this one, could cruise to the slopers every time but then would get scared and bail off.

Another fantastic belay tick. Dayna crushed it, the very smol beta is definitely hard 25 at minimum. I’m tempted to take 26 for my excellent belaying.

4 fitness laps that ended at the slippers because I don’t hate myself (was scared and in full sun)

First go best go. Good to tick off this classic.

Actually really excellent climbing but really needs good conditions. Definitely 24 at best but I’ll take some free grades. Significantly easier and more friendly than butts of beef, but not a good one if you’re at your limit just because of the tree.

Yay I sent the worst 22 in Nowra, I can go back to never climbing slab again

I can see why it’s classic, but it was without a doubt one of the least enjoyable climbs I’ve ever tried. Conditions on the slab were pretty disgusting, the rest of the route just wasn’t fun.

Absolutely cooked it

Dropped the top because I half committed to two different betas.

Trying Dayna’s hectic toe hook beta, being 5 foot tall seems fucking difficult, feels like nails 25 that way. Didnt clip the anchor cuz I was scared #DubiousPinkPoint

That’s a nice quarter pad mini pinch. Awesome climb. Would be curious to know what grade people think that crux sequence is if anyone has any thoughts cuz it seems atleast V Hard

Awesome climb but trying this in full sun today was pretty cooked. Should go next time I try it in better connies.

First time doing the OG non kneebar crux beta, it’s so hectic

Way to warm

Still fun

Yeah true rock climbing does suck Kezzadawg

Gotta love getting another belay tick

Had about 8 goes at the first move, went the second time I caught the move but only caught it with two fingers both times

Feeling pretty juggy today, the start sequence is feeling super chill now

Sit start warmup lap

I can only hope I was having an off day, because after about 45 mins of dogging I’d successfully held a position or 2. I assume more reach would help a little but it felt like I’d need the strength of a 32 climber to have this feel anywhere near 29. The FA at 31 at least currently seems fair so very curious as to what beta might make this feel 29z
