Working on Biologico 9a 🦎
I thought I’d share a little bit of the process of working on a route.
This part of the process is something that I enjoy a lot! Figuring out the beta, different body positions, how to grab the holds, brushing everything nice and clean, putting some tickmarks, more brushing, trying what beta works and what doesn’t, which of these dozens of footholds to use etc. 😁
All this takes a lot of time and effort.. I usually feel a lot more tired after working on a route, than after I’ve given it a try from the ground. On redpoint attempts you usually climb a lot faster and consequently spend less time on the wall.
On this clip you can see me working on the first crux of the route. Hanging a lot on the draws and brushing all the holds multiple times. I’m quite meticulous about it because I like to have my holds with as much friction as possible 😄
Thanks
@aleksandrablinnikka for always being a patient belayer 🙏
