Wow it's been a while since my hands took this much punishment in a training session. I guess two hours of paddle and laché practice with @jules_ast will do it! 😂 I had just enough left in the tank after training to send a couple of cheeky V5s on @vauxwall East's new ship set (there's also a cracking red V4 which I didn't get on film) Will be back with fresh skin and fresh shoulders for the 6s 💪🥲 1) 🫐 V5 entirely my style to be fair, just had to sort out where to put my feet near the bottom (h/t @carostealscats for her start beta) and then it went without too much trouble. A satisfying shimmy up the wall. 2) 🖍️ V5 super fun 😍 a bit dynamic, a hidden foot hold, a bit scrappy because I'd been going for 3 hours by this point but overall mustn't grumble. Luvvly jubbly. 3) RIP skin 💀 good job I'm not climbing again until Tuesday #climb #climbing_is_my_passion #climberswithkids #climbinglife #climbing #climbingmums #climbingismypassion #climbingmothers #bouldering #mumswhoclimb #shortbeta #shortclimber #sheclimbs #womenclimb #womenclimbers #lcc #catalystclimbing

You know when you plan a dynamic day and then end up finding the most static beta every climb? 🙈 After a frustrating few days cooped up at home nursing my 3 year old I need to MOVE. A little birdie told me that @eustonwall had ALL THE DYNOS so I went to check them out. They did indeed have all the dynos, arguably too many (!!!) which meant I struggled to concentrate on any one project. Ahem. Made some progress on some biggies that I hope to come back for another day but I won't bore you with all my flailing around on unsent pogos: I can't think of anything interesting to say about them. They all go: swing- swing -jump- land on the floor in a heap 😂 Instead I came away with two easier dynos and two climbs more my style that were required to prop up my ego after a couple of hours of flailing and falling. 1) 🫐 V5- I was initially trying to make this more dynamic and it wasn't working so it took a while to piece together. Also the move to the hold round the corner is entirely blind so you have to learn where it is! However my wrestle with the side-pull, and the heel hook in the middle didn't feel like it was the intended beta so static beta won this round. 2) 🍎 V3- the volume you're trying to stick your pogo onto is VERY VERTICAL so this one took a few attempts 😂 3) 🐻‍❄️ V5 - dagnammit so close! Another 10 minutes or a bit earlier in the session and I think I'd have stuck the finish. Fun climb though: looks terrifying because the holds are teeny tiny but actually feels ok. 4) 🍎 V4 - I was hoping to do something cool and spinny at the beginning starting facing out, but I was struggling to generate momentum from such a wide stance (common problem I have with little legs) so I ended up with this much more static beta. I was not expecting the end to feel this awkward buuuuuut... it was I'll be back for more bouncy nonsense after Easter- gotta keep working that weakness 💪 #climbing_is_my_passion #climberswithkids #climbing #climbingmums #climbingismypassion #climbingmothers #climb #climbinglife #mumswhoclimb #bouldering #sheclimbs #shortbeta #shortclimber #lcc #catalystclimbing #womenclimb #womenclimbers

Ooh there's a lot of fun to be had at @vauxwall East at the moment! Great session that picked me up after a challenging morning 😁 Here's what I bagged today: 1) 🌶️ V5: an intriguing technical slab number from @callum.sketch thank you! 🙏 .The crux for me was getting far enough over - after the very satisfying dynamic stand up move - to get the super high and teeny weeeeeeeny foot. 2) 🐈‍⬛ V6 Spent a hot minute on this one! 😤 Taller folk seemed to do well stepping a foot through but I had to learn how to do a couple of incredibly sketchy foot swaps. Then the last move threw me off a few times just when I thought I'd triumphed. Got there in the end thanks to some psych from @my_climbing_diary who I finally met in person today 🥰 3) 🍊 V5 Didn't put up too much of a fight, amazingly (I could get used to these juggy v5 overhangs 😅), the only thing that threw me off first time was moving to the penultimate hold: I just needed to get my butt further over right to prevent the barn door. 4) no hands V-silly: this was a dynamic challenge set by the ever-bouncy @jules_ast in our training session on Saturday. Couldn't send it on the day so I went back for another go (ok 20 goes) in my warm-up. And I managed not to grate my nose this time 😂👍👍👍 I'm now reflecting on why, every time I train dynamic movement, it takes so long to remind my body how to be dynamic 🤷 it's getting a little frustrating. #shortbeta #shortclimber #sheclimbs #climbing_is_my_passion #climberswithkids #climbing #climbingmums #climbingismypassion #climbingmothers #bouldering #womenclimbers #lcc #catalystclimbing

Immaculate vibes at @vauxwall West this evening 🥰 for what turned out to be a very sendy session on the two newest sets in the cafe and cave arches. 1) 🐋 V4 lovely and flowy. I nearly flashed it but my foot slipped off the last hold, sending me plummeting mat-wards face first. Argh! I was fine, just needed a little word with myself to get back up there. 2) 🐝 V5 techy! Took me a few goes to figure out where to put all my limbs to maximise reach, and to keep balance during the stand up but we got there. 3) 🐝 V5 mantles are starting to come together! ☺️ The move felt super strong unless you got the technique spot on and then it was actually fine. The heel really helped control the swing when matching the left hold. Short but very fun climb! 4) 🫐 V5 took a few goes to figure out my feet in the middle and then another couple to discover how to reach the last hold (left foot higher up the volume was a game-changer!) but it was fun working it all out. This one feels loooong and pumpy. Many more projects in progress - I WILL BE BACK FOR YOU. 💪💪💪 📍@vauxwall West, cafe and cave arches 🎥 Chalk bucket and Stu 🙏 #climbing_is_my_passion #climberswithkids #climbing #climbingmums #climbingismypassion #climbingmothers #climbing #bouldering #sheclimbs #shortbeta #shortbeta #lcc #catalystclimbing

The very nice (/brave) folk at @londonclimbingcentres let me loose with a drill today. MU HA HA HA HA! I spent the day on a route setting taster course that was specially for women+ in honour of International Women's Day. It was SO MUCH FUN 😍 I AM EXHAUSTED 😴 I HAVE SAWDUST IN MY BRA 👀 I SET SOME BLOCS! 💪 Huge thanks to the fabulous @shortassros and @taylaclimbs for expertly guiding us towards some (hopefully) climbable climbs, and to the rest of the crew (@shati01, @ifoundtheme et al for the great vibes all day. I really loved what we came up with. A surprising number of the climbs were pretty shouldery 😂 You'll have to excuse all the scrappy climbing in these vids - it had been a long day 😴 Here's what we got: 1) me and my trusty impact driver 2) 💜 V4 @ifoundtheme super strong shouldery thing 😍 3) 🍒 V4 my bloc! It was originally more matchy matchy but apparently we had to make some adjustments so that people with bigger hands could climb it (don't see lanky setters *necessarily* offering us shorties the same olive branch but FINE 😂) 4) 🐝 V4 @shati01 's lovely waspy route 5) 🐈‍⬛ V5 didn't catch their insta handle but I love love LOVED this shuffly cave start. If you manage to make it out without giggling yourself off the wall, it then gets really powerful. Boom! I think this would go when fresh 👀 6) Just a picture that also shows my 🍊 V0 bloc There was also a wicked blue Dyno but I never made enough of that to warrant a video. These blocs are up until 13 Feb in the @bethwall comp arch so get em while they're hot! #shortclimber #shortbeta #sheclimbs #iwd #lcc #catalystclimbing #mumswhoclimb #climbing_is_my_passion #climberswithkids #climbing #climbingmums #climbingismypassion #climbingmothers #climbing #bouldering

Code-breaker drill for log-off strength with @catalystclimbing Bengal 🐅 @vauxwall Thanks @mijosy for the pic #catalystclimbing #shortpeoplebeta #mumsgoneclimbing #womenwhoclimb #girlwhoclimb #mumsbouldering #womensbouldering

Some fun sends from my trip to @eustonwall today. Too lazy and too many fun routes to share to make any progression videos, soz, but shortie beta abounds! Today was about dynamic movement and slabs (apparently I'm not really feeling the overhangs this week). 1) 🍊V4 this one has been playing on my mind since my last visit, and it took a few goes to coordinate dropping the heel, grabbing the hold and planting the foot. The top was no picnic either. Really pleased with this one! 2) 🐻‍❄️V4 Lol, sent the bloc, dropped the downclimb 😎 so elegant 💅 😅 loved the coordinated start. 3) 🐈‍⬛ V3 Little pogos will go, these days 👍. I struggle with the harder ones (bigger or with worse handholds to launch from) but I find it helps to keep my confidence up if I just keep drilling all the easy ones I can find! Tried the blue v6 pogo next to it aaaaaand..... Not so much 😂 I'll keep trying! 4) 🍊 V5 Yes yes, this is just my style. It helps to chuck one or two of these into a session for morale when I'm otherwise battling my weaknesses. I way over-thought the beta at the beginning though - turns out a couple of the moves just needed a big heave up 5) 🐈‍⬛ V3 Faffy send but this was *right* at the end of my session and I was knackered and starving, so once it went, that was it, I was packing up! Took a few goes to coordinate the Dyno to foot plant, and then again the top was unexpectedly tricksy! I've gotta stop underestimating these v3s. 6) 🐻‍❄️ V3 Again I feel like I just have to make sure I drill these run and jump starts every time I see them, to build my confidence and muscle memory to take on the harder ones. Some days I get spooked at running full-tilt at solid walls but this one worked! Somehow the catch ended up being really nicely dead-pointed 👌 7) 🍎 V4 Naming no names 👀 but a shortie friend of mine was convinced this start couldn't be done at our height. I thought I'd have a go and see what happened. Amazingly the high foot cantilever worked at most attempts (it was just really hard work!) I then had to figure out the rest of the climb which was not obvious, so I was pleased to get it to this state.

Had the most incredible coaching session with the lovely @captaincutloose at @eustonwall. He helped shift my mindset, making me believe in myself and climb way harder than I ever thought possible! Fun bonus video of me dropping the last hold on a V7 that I'm tempted to go back to London for (had to run for the train so didn't get to retry) 🤣 Very ready for a proper winter training plan, and then on to smash comps in the new year!

I’ve pledged to climb 3,000 feet during the month of April to benefit the Catalyst Climbing Team for our travel and training costs during the upcoming international competitions in Salt Lake City and Europe. This is the equivalent of climbing El Capitan, and I’ve been assured by renowned alpinist Clymee McClimberson—who I totally didn’t just make up—that I’ll be able to say that I’ve free-solo’d El Cap!

So grateful to Crux Power Climbing for donating chalk for the Catalyst Climbing Team!!! If I was dangling off the strut of a helicopter to escape a burning building, and if I had time to chalk up, THIS is the chalk I would use.

Today is the day my little chickadee! These past few months has been a delight working with you and watching you grow as a climber.

Today was a fanboy day! I'm so happy I had the opportunity to meet @aidan.roberts98 in Yonder 🤯🤩 He even gave me 2 betas on those 2 climbs! The blue one is a very nice V7 and purple I guess it's V5/V6. On the purp I missed the hold a lil bit and wasn't able to repeat it as the starting holds are the hardest part of the climb! It was mind blowing to see Aidan climbing and cruising everything. "Oh what did you change compared with your previous attempts to send it?", Him "I added more chalk", what a chap 😂 📽️ @maximevercheval you perv 😂 #climbinglife #fanboy #climbingbouldering #boulderinguk #boulderingindoor #climbinglondon #climbingvideo #bouldering #climbinguk #thisisyonder #falloffless #catalystclimbing

Who knew a high gravity day could be such a great start to the year! I recently made my way down to @lancaster_wall to shake off the rust and get back into climbing shape following a rather merry Christmas and new year! (and also to have a go on their shiny new @kilterboard !) I decided to follow a training program (a la @catalystclimbing 's youtube membership) for a bit of structure, but once I'd finished the warmup and first exercise - moving on to the projecting part - that's about where I stopped in terms of sending ability! Even with my failures to send, I still had a blast trying to figure out where I went wrong and what I could improve on for my next try! In fact, I kept trying problem after problem to the point where I could barely scrape together a v0 when I finally made it to the Kilter board! Here's to starting the year off right! (and also hopefully falling off the walls less!) ------------------------ Kilter board problems: • Tigers Never Die, v0 - Video 3 • The Time is Now, v0 - Video 4 • Eezyy Breezy, v1 (failed) - Video 5 ------------------------ #bouldering #climbing #indoorbouldering #indoorclimbing #lakelandclimbingcenter #lancasterwall #lancaster #kilterboard #training #fitness #project #catalystclimbing #tryinghard #gettingstronger

Siege Finals 🥈 🎉@stronghold_uk Some very smiley photos from @tanyaraab which capture just how much fun I was having in this finals (and how much try hard I put into boulder 4🥵). After spending the week sick in bed, I’m very proud of myself for managing to climb well, try hard, achieve 2nd place and have a really fun time doing it! What made it even more special was sharing the experience with the most wholesome, enthusiastic and lovely group of finalists. Thank you @captaincutloose, @nathan_whale, @rae__childs, @matt.vc, @dipikahopkins and the rest of the strong bunch for making it so much fun 🥰🥹 (And to @alexprescottclimbing for setting mega blocs as always and being so supportive❤️) Until the next one…. 😈 • • • #strongwomen #competitionclimbing #competitionclimber #femaleclimber #womenwhoset #womenwhoclimb #klettern #bouldering #tryhardhavefun #falloffmore #catalystclimbing

Great competition at @bigrockclimbing today. . . . #catalystclimbing @catalystclimbing @brunoclimbs

Fantastic way to spend a Saturday afternoon- @rainbowrocketcc grand finals. Very privileged to climb alongside these crushers. I have a thing or two to learn about dynos and coordination but at least I tried, and ended up on my feet (just about). #climbingover40 #womenclimb #catalystclimbing @usefulcoach @conradclimbs. 📷 @basil.g_photo

A few from this week, V2, V3, V2. The white felt pretty good...kinda getting back in to the grove! It must be my new #catalystclimbing vest! Thanks to @addisg94 for the, quite frankly stunning commentary! #falloffmore #vauxwall

British Bouldering Championships 2022 🔥 — A stellar qualifying round this Saturday gave me the chance to fight again today in semis! This being my first ever BBC, I went into it with very few expectations, but equally little experience to prepare me for the competition. I picked up two tops on M1 and M2, and a zone on M4, which was enough for semis, however, I wasn’t able to replicate such a performance today. Coming away from this, I have two conclusions, #1: I should be proud of my performance, making it to semis in my first male national competition, but also, #2: I need to take more care preparing myself for the competition; I.e. more days of rest beforehand, more skin preservation, and making sure I keep myself well rested and energised on the day. Overall, a massive personal win for me. 🦾 ———————— Thanks to @ivoclimb for the picture + @captaincutloose for the videos. Also a massive thanks to @gb_climbing and their volunteers for hosting this massive event ———————— #bbcs #cliffhanger #bouldering #catalystclimbing #competition #crackclimbing #klettern #falloffless

Three reds with three toe hooks for stability. One needed a heel hook (thanks Coach Ransford!) or I'd've fallen like a sack of potatoes! Shout out to whoever put on Al Stewart during my sesh. #bouldering #boulderinglondon #vauxwalleast #catalystclimbing #toehook #heelhook #pushyourself

Here at Kletterkalk UK we understand that even the very best chalk (ours of course!) doesn't always cut it when you have excessive hand moisture. Sweaty palms (hyperhidrosis) affects many climbers so we're here to help! We have teamed up with Sweatguard, the UK's premier experts on moisture control. A combination of our chalky know-how and Sweatguard's proven experience and excellent product range, we can control those sweaty paws! Our very own Captain Cutloose has been putting Sweatguard through its paces for a few weeks and the results are in... It's working! Reducing wetness even on the hottest days in the gym. Don't take our word for it, ask him yourself!

So I've decided to start doing the @catalystclimbing Saturday morning workouts with the man, the myth.... The freaking beast! @captaincutloose 🤘😜 I joined their new membership on YouTube. If you're interested in improving and you don't have a lot of money to spend, I suggest checking out their new membership. It's just starting, but the backlog of videos alone is already killer. I'm hoping to start using the on the wall training as well as the weekend workouts and I'm just gonna see what happens. It's a little late on life to be reaching for v15s, but it doesn't hurt to just put in the work and see where it goes. 🤷 Today was a core workout and it is rough. It's up for a few more hours if you're not a member so you can still go over and try it for yourself. They leave them up for 12 or 24 hours after the live stream I believe. There are different levels of difficulty, so there's something for everyone. I tried to do the most difficult and I did all except the past 2 exercises. 🥵I had to cut out a few seconds early. It was super tough but really fun. With all the recent events, it only makes sense that we try and be as healthy as we can to be able to allow our bodies to fight off any unwanted issues that may come our way. So like I said I'm just gonna do this for a while and see where it goes. It can't hurt😁 You with me? - - #fitnesschallenge #fitness #climbers #catalystclimbing #captaincutloose #dowork #menshealth #selfcare #gqmagazine 😁 #gains #workouts #motivation #staymotivated #healthgoals

Small video dump from the last set at @substation.brixton 🔥 Video 1: comp set N°18. I saw so many people trying to do the first move dynamically, but I found it less stressful to try it statically. The hardest move was getting the drop knee, and then releasing it to rotate for the final move! Was pretty happy to send this as it was waayyy more technical than I thought! Video 2: my style, burley and powerful. I found the problem itself pretty good! I think that for a lot of people the crux was getting to the highest jug, because it was at my full span! Towards the end, I knew I could do the last move but pulling from a high heel is definitely something I need to work on as you can see the awkward hesitation! Video 3: Nice and flowy, even though I looked a little lost 😂 mainly because I was searching for my the footholds. Excited to try the new sets coming @substation.brixton ! 🔥🔥 . . . #substation #climbingTraining #power #getclimbing #climbinglife #climbing #boulderingcomps #boulderinguk #bloodsweatbouldering #climbinggym #bouldering #indoorboulderinggym #betabreak #boulderingTraining #bodytension #compboulders #liveclimbrepeat #strengthgains #londonclimbing #indoorclimbing #indoorbouldering #doyouboulder #strengthgains #catalystclimbing

🐌(v7 second go 💚) Everyone either loves slabs or hates them. Personally I love them, even though I'm not great at them. One thing I love about them is that in most cases, you cannot use power and brute force to get up the wall. You have to have precise movement and body position and are forced to USE 👏 YOUR 👏 LEGS 👏 What made this a particular interesting problem was that standing when moving to the slopers, they had a tiny sloping edge, enough to stabilise on, but not enough to be able to squeeze (hence the snail like movement, trying to control my breath and stay calm) The final move, I almost gave up, as you can see. I thought I could pull with the undercling and force my way up. Immediately that didn't happen and I got the Elvis leg 🕺 The only way to then get up is to half piston squat and trust your foot will hold its position! I was fully expecting myself to slip, but when I caught the top, and my leg flung out, because my foot was properly weighted, it didn't slip off the small nugget. What a fantastic slab @substation.brixton 🔥 . . . #substation #climbingTraining #power #getclimbing #climbinglife #climbing #boulderingcomps #training #boulderinguk #bloodsweatbouldering #climbinggym #bouldering #indoorboulderinggym #betabreak #boulderingTraining #bodytension #compboulders #londonclimbing #indoorclimbing #indoorbouldering #doyouboulder #stepup #catalystclimbing

It was a great weekend for climbing @usaparaclimbing Nationals, so good in fact that 7 members of the Catalyst Climbing Team were named to the US National Paraclimbing Team! Congratulations to all those who competed, we can't wait to see what heights you all reach next! @ellrubin @tbi_outdoors @cewinstel @ler_223 @amy_climber #usaclimbing #usaparaclimbing #paraclimbing #adaptivesports #adaptiverecreation #adaptiveathletes #accessislove #iamadaptive #inclusion #adaptiveawareness #nonprofit #inclusivesports #community #adaptandthrive #climbing #adaptiveclimbing #rockclimbing #disabledclimbing #catalystclimbing #climbingteam

It’s been awhile since I’ve updated…partly due to busyness of life and also feeling that with the tragedy of the war and refugee crisis in Ukraine that my everyday issues needed to take a backseat for awhile. I had a setback and have been spending some more time in the chair. I was so determined to walk that I aggravated some scar tissue in the right leg and caused a flare up of pain and decreased range of motion. Will likely need a scope at some point to clean that up but in the meantime I went non-weight bearing for a while and now working sloooowly back up to walking. When you haven’t walked in a year and a half and you start walking again things are not necessarily the same. And you know me, I’m going to push through anything that my body might tell me to slow down. But I have had to slow it down and that’s okay. The good news is the pain has resolved and my range of motion has returned. This weekend is the USA Paraclimbing competition and I’m really excited for old friends competing this weekend! Check out their page for updates! Overall, I still have so much gratitude and my faith continues to sustain me! I know that my survival and everything that I do every day is a miracle! #paraclimbing #amputeestrong #polytraumasurvivor #catalystclimbing #truegrit #perseverance

Meet Ellie Rubin! Ellie’s introduction to climbing was at her 8th birthday at the local climbing gym, but she’s been climbing regularly for the past 5 years. This is her first USA Paraclimbing bing Nationals, and she’s beyond stoked to represent the South and Alabama at her hometown gym. @ellrubin @usaparaclimbing #usaclimbing #usaparaclimbing #paraclimbing #adaptivesports #adaptiverecreation #adaptiveathletes #accessislove #iamadaptive #inclusion #adaptiveawareness #nonprofit #inclusivesports #community #adaptandthrive #climbing #adaptiveclimbing #rockclimbing #disabledclimbing #catalystclimbing #climbingteam

Brayden (BB) Butler is a traumatic brain injury and hemorrhagic stroke survivor that have left him with life long left neglect. Brayden started climbing 5 years ago on indoor and outdoor rock, but took a long break to focus on mountain biking. 3 months ago he decided to hit the wall again and it gave him even more determination to compete on a national level. He is so excited to represent the Catalyst Climbing Team at this years @usaparaclimbing Nationals and hopefully at the world cups! @tbi_outdoors #usaclimbing #usaparaclimbing #paraclimbing #adaptivesports #adaptiverecreation #adaptiveathletes #accessislove #iamadaptive #inclusion #adaptiveawareness #nonprofit #inclusivesports #community #adaptandthrive #climbing #adaptiveclimbing #rockclimbing #disabledclimbing #catalystclimbing #climbingteam

Making her second appearance at @usaparaclimbing Nationals, Caroline Winstel-McLeod is most excited to climb with the community this coming weekend and see where her training has taken her in RP2. Caroline started climbing in August of 2020 for research for her dissertation, fell in love with climbing, and never looked back. We are also happy to announce that she successfully defended that dissertation! @cewinstel Swipe to see Caroline at the World Cup in LA.

Andrew Baker started climbing about 7 weeks ago after someone added him to our climbing team Facebook group. Then Mary, our Climbing Director, told him he should go to Nationals, so now he’s going to USA Paraclimbing Nationals with his “vast climbing experience”. Well Andrew we are so glad someone added you to our group no matter what level of experience you’ve got. We can’t wait to cheer you on this weekend! @pegleg_puddle_pirate #usaclimbing #usaparaclimbing #paraclimbing #adaptivesports #adaptiverecreation #adaptiveathletes #accessislove #iamadaptive #inclusion #adaptiveawareness #nonprofit #inclusivesports #community #adaptandthrive #climbing #adaptiveclimbing #rockclimbing #disabledclimbing #catalystclimbing #climbingteam

Erin Kline has been climbing for about a year and is excited to experience not just her first @usaparaclimbing Nationals, but also her first competition!

Definitely need to do some more climbers portraits mid session 😂 what do you think @awesomewalls_sheffield ? - - One of the most genuine dudes out there, @captaincutloose is the don! - @catalystclimbing - #climbers #climbingportrait #adventurephotography #adventure #captaincutloose #portrait #athletic #athleteportrait #photographer #photooftheday #follow #climbingcommunity #community #muscle #catalystclimbing #getit #2022

N°16 of the @substation.brixton comp set 🔵✅🔵, only 3 left to complete! Personally I found that the crux of the problem was moving from the dish, given my limited skin 😡. THAT BEING SAID, after a couple of recovery days, and squeezing hard, this got sent pretty quickly. I seem to be really struggling with moving with confidence and overthink a lot of my climbing, so It was nice to move quickly to send the problem! Only number 17, 19 and 22 left to go! . . . #substation #climbingTraining #power #getclimbing #climbinglife #climbing #boulderingcomps #training #boulderinguk #bloodsweatbouldering #climbinggym #bouldering #indoorboulderinggym #betabreak #boulderingTraining #bodytension #compboulders #liveclimbrepeat #strengthgains #londonclimbing #indoorclimbing #indoorbouldering #doyouboulder #strengthgains #catalystclimbing

It was such a great day at the first @catalystclimbing Paraclimbing Social Class yesterday. I learnt so much from our coach @paraclimberlea. The exercises on quiet feet and understanding dynamic movement definitely helped me send these climbs. 1. 🕷 Black V6, 2nd. I got to see a number of people trying this one because it was No. 19 on the Varsity Climbing Competition that was taking place @harrowall that day. So, it helped with reading and visualising. Watching someone send a climb is like an extra attempt. 2. 🦕 Blue V4. 2nd. I saw the high start hold and went for it. In my 1st attempt, I underestimated how good the 2nd hold was, so my body postion wasn't optimal when I grabbed it, and I fell. 3. 🐞 Red V5, 3rd. It felt so good to get this! Because I found this so hard on the wrist if you weren't accurate. I managed to smoothen out all the moves until slapping with the right made no noise! 😁 4. 🦋 Blue V5, 3rd. I did try the heelhook beta, but when I made the 1st move, I cut loose and so instead of waiting to slow down and get the heel on. I used the momentum to campus to the next hold. (Cut off the finish by accident) 5. 🦖 Green V4, 2nd. I love this type of blind dynamic move where you move side ways to grab two holds and require spatial/body awareness. Does anyone know what this move is called? 6. 🐬 Blue V4, flash. Pistol squat power 🔫. This is exactly my type of problem. I got the span and the dynamism for reachy climbs. But I like to practice scrunched up climbs like this one so I can deal with any size 'box'. It was so fun climbing with my buddies @gettheclimbon @noughttosee, @natyouraverageclimber, @paraclimber_jeantique and @svaraaj. Thanks for everything. It was lovely to meet @aedanl and @soeckle00 too. . . . . . . #bouldering #boulder #londonbeta #boulderinglife #indoorclimbing #harrowallbeta #boulderinggym #climbinggym #harrow #bouldering_pictures_of_instagram #weclimbuk #climbingismypassion #bouldern #harrowall #ボルダリング #bouldergym #klettern #harrowallclimbing #climbingvideos #クライミング #climbon #indoorbouldering #dyno #pistolsquat #dynamicmovement #quietfeet #catalystclimbing

The slab wall at @harrowall never ceases to amaze with co-ordination dyno potential 😎🤙 Also had a great session with @captaincutloose at yonder, some comp simulation practice is always great to reflect on strengths and weaknesses - still a little tentative on the fingers after a pulley strain on my right hand but I feel the confidence flowing back already 😤 Time to start training for upcoming comps, and a trip to Albarracín for a couple weeks over the Easter holidays. #dyno #climbing #bouldering #parkour #falloffless #kletterkalk #catalystclimbing #catalystcreatures
