Begehungen in Onkaparinga

Tried the first few moves but damn they felt hard. Didn’t even make it to the arrête.

A rusty off and a bit too pumped for this. Always nice to try again though

Actually made the moves today. Nice! Once up there, I could see the moves. In particular a foot move I needed to get across which I didn’t get/see last time. Almost missed the line of crimps through the roof and continued boosting left. Stuck the dyno first try but failed to get up proper until a second go.

Feels like there should be a line on the right after getting up on the undercling.

Felt pretty cruisey today

Tried the moves through roof and still stuck on the double joystick hold. Need to find some more kneebars or heel toe cams

Climbed like a dream today. Silky smooth.

Such a good link up. Easy and enjoyable climbing up The Permanently Moist Thing, then a nice move into the horn of Lust and left into the chimney. From there, awesome bridging and into Greed you go Unexpected tick after Paul sorted out a good beta for getting out of the chimney. Recommended! Thanks Redanon for bolting!

COVID positive send

Putting a top rope up. Was surprised I still had juice for this. Didnt even drop knee through the crux.

Warm up for Camel. Actually climbed it well again today. Must be a sending day after all those unsending days.

Moving fast and committing to more of a side pulling sequence worked for me. Still feels like I match hands too often.

Yesss! Stoked! First burn today.

Felt fresh at the TR chains and knew I was in with a good chance after sticking the crux. Worryingly I had almost knocked my knee pad off before getting its use however committed to just driving my knee up anyway (my poor knee).

Tried some new beta for the top sequence after the jam and it worked like a treat (crimp next to the pinch and knee scum).

Did have a slight concern Id pump out before clipping the runout chains but it was smoooooth sailing.

Absolutely amazed that I could do this at all. I remember looking at these routes years ago when I started climbing and thinking that one day long in the future I would try them. Who knew Id be sending them and this soon.

Cleaning draws off. Feels so dialed and nice now

Pulled through the crux on a clean burn and went all the way through to the jam and pinch. Just dropped the move to the undercling. SO incredibly stoked with this progress!!! Didnt realise I could get this close so soon. Maybe I dont need to revise my crux beta after all?

Seems harder every time. Or I just like unsending climbs that are my current project. Felt slippery today and very side pully

Slipped off when setting up for the crux move Did manage to pull back on and went clean to just past the pinch and jam. Just didnt latch the undercling. Tried to find some alternative beta for the crux below but still couldnt manage anything else other than my sequence with the gaston shouldery move.

Seems like the move from the pinch to the undercling might be my red point crux now

Putting draws on for Camel. Climbing this much better now. Clipping the second bolt proper from the offwidth and then getting my feet left for the final sequence to the chains rather than heel toe cam the undercling

Another burn and marginal progress?

Still couldnt get through the first crux clean from the ground but again did it first try after a hang.

Made better progress through the next sequence matching the good U shaped undercling to help get my moves in the right order. Dropped moving up into the pinch. Clean to the top again after that.

(Two hangs - time to cut down how long I rest on them and or try take one hang out..... or both?)
