Went back to this sloper squeezing dream again because I felt like the one-shot couldn’t portray the line well enough so I wanted to shoot a couple angles… that, and it’s super, super fun. Chevalier, FA up Woodfords. Cant tell y’all how cool it is after so many years of hunting lines to still be able to go out and to feel, to Know I’m gonna find something great. Makes me feel like one of those old timers finding water with a couple crooked sticks. #chalkmatters #chalkupless #frictionlabs

After the Movie Screen and Spannuth Armada, Kirkules was next on the list. It’s such an epic line, and a rather intense DWS with a very tenuous and technical boulder around the 50’ mark. Apparently a hold broke in the crux a few years ago and I know numerous strong people who say they’ve gone up it only to be baffled by the crux (as evidenced by the bail biner!). I rapped down the route a few weeks ago and sorted this cryptic sequence that I was stoked on, and knew it would be a really fun time over the water. I ended up firing it first go of the day, then flashed the 13c next to it, Bad Hombres! We only have one week left and I’m trying to enjoy the excitement while it lasts!

I really don’t think I have more fun climbing than I do on 5-start rigs over the water!

DWoods Precision Grip, made by Friction Labs.
Coming July this year @dawoods89
This product is the culmination of peak performance. When you combine a company that strives to make the highest performance chalk possible, and then team up with the strongest rock climber in the world who demands the best possible grip, you are left with Precision Grip. We worked with Daniel through many iterations of different chalk blends to dial in this brand new high performance blend.
More details coming soon.

Improvement in climbing often times comes from repetition in challenging and unusual types of movement, whether that be strength based or technique based.

Le surplomb de la Mée (assis gauche) 8B+✅
Closing out the Font season before the heat kicks in ! This one has been on my mind for a while and it’s definitely one of the best hard line in the forest 🌳
Also managed to send the 8A+ direct version the same day. Such a nice day out before a very busy two months stretch ! 🌏

Thanks for the friction @frictionlabs
