For the last few climbing sessions I have still been in the bouldering room because it has been so cold in the arena. Today I was doing routes with Mhairi as part of my BRYCS coaching session. I was also wearing my new La Sportiva size 35 shoes that are now the right size for me.
I had been trying the tan boulder problem on the 45 degree board on Tuesday and Thursday but I couldn't reach one of the foot holds so (while McGeek wasn't there) I asked Mhairi to add a foothold to the right of the one I couldn't reach. I then couldn't get past the pinch hold. Today with my new shoes I managed to get to one hold from the top!! Rachel (bouldering meister) Carr told me to head bob the last move !!! I will try it tomorrow.
That tan is really tricky! I can't believe you put in another foothold!!! You are almost as bad as mcgeek (he puts footholds on all my problems cause he canny do them!)
