So, I know I said that I would take the send of the Power of Silence proj despite the dab, but I couldn't. It bothered me. A lot. So, we headed out there again today with the slate wiped clean. Still a project, still no name, etc. Zack and Josh were nice enough to let me have first go, and I was able to put it together clean this time! It helped to take a couple rest days. This time, we got footage (even though it's pretty ghetto), so that should be up soon. Anyways, Zack took next go and also fired it! Then Josh was up and he cruised all of the opening moves and almost fired it first go. Pretty sick improvement over last time. He'll def get it soon! Josh suggested the name Perspective, and I really like it. Simple and appropriate, so it's finally over. Perspective (v9) is born. Get out and try this thing, lemme know what you think!
Then we hiked around and looked at / climbed some of the classics. Our goal was to make it down to the Concave Proj, but of course we got too wrecked. David put up a right exit to P0wned and I went over to try this little steep project that usually seems to be wet. It looked soaked, but was quite dry. We messed with some holds, found a good way to start the problem and after some efforts and very little remaining skin, I sent the rig. David came in and did it a couple goes later after punting off the topout. This thing will eat your skin if you aren't careful (or maybe even if you are) but it is still super fun movement, and pretty tough. I figured it to be a hard 7, but seems harder if yer short. As 3 new lines went up today, and I'm not one of the young guns any more, I called it Geriatric Hat Trick (7b (to compromise)). I'm psyched to let my skin heal and get out there again soon. There really is a lot of fun to be had in the neighborhood!
Sorry no photos, vid will come soon maybe.
