v3

Ok. Was back to same old 5.11a, it was easy. Also did like 2.5 v3 problems, it was fun too. But I guess bouldering really abused my fingers. Couldn't do much after that 5.11.

new shoes

I think I am back to my healthy self. I was able to mock-lead a 5.10d on which I only tried the first couple of moves a week before. Probably will start taking lead test(-s) in June. Now I need some time to study..

Anyway, I got Katanas because I need to resole my Mythos and I like them a lot. They are a half size bigger though. So, this is how yesterday has ended.

trad

So, I went today to another trad clinic. In the end Dave said that I wouldn't die. Do I feel confident?  Yeah, I can't see why I wouldn't be able to lead. Some of my placements totally sucked, but in general I was ok.
Today I also saw that I need to resole my mythos... and that just after 6 month of climbing? Well, I just hope my footwork will get better than that.

ok. I'm getting back in shape

It feels like my muscles are still not recovered since Sunday. Yesterday I couldn't do my regular 5.11a (maybe I had to actually warm up :). And realized that I forgot most of the sequences for a favorite 5.10d. So I had relearning experience. Spend a night climbing in the lower 10s and found another interesting 10d. But all of this is ridicules TRing, I got to go into leading.

v3?

I think I was in the gym once in the last 3 weeks. In addition to that, just starting to recover from the nasty cold/virus I lost my belay partner :( 6 stitches on the index finger puts her out for another couple of weeks. But this is nothing comparing to what people in Burma and China are experiencing right now, so I don't complain.

However, miserably failing to finish a v2 I actually was able to do all the moves on a v3, I don't think I've properly sequenced them, but I think in my last attempt I only cheated on the first move. So, there you go.
