Higher level guys are amazing
Our goals are the same. Walk up 5’s and successfully project 7’s and higher. My former climbing partner is at that level having sent 10+ 7’s and some V8, but he isn’t a total master of 5’s yet (though he flashes them over half the time and often flashes 6’s)
Add a low start and that crimp problem you posted above looks like a V2 they would set in the Dedham gym. Total tightmare for its grade but great practice
