Open project. Irregular moves through a roof, jugs, with a spicy slab at the top. Set: Ebert Nel, 2020 | 10 | |||
{SA} 29 | Bloodline
Think I agree with initial consensus of 29. Contender for best at this grade I've done in the cape. Quite brutal yet delicate 7A-ish start to a good rest, followed by some pumpy monkey business and another desperate mid crux. Then some fun throws to a final delicate slab crux right below the chains. Although tempting, I stuck left at the end as per bolter's intention, avoiding the cop-out jug exit. Thanks to Pete for having an eye for this truly unique future classic - Robin Klintworth (FA) Set: Peter van der Merwe, 2020 FA: Robin Klintworth, 15 May 2022 | 10 | |||
