Well yesterday I went back into the park and did some bouldering at the Suzuki Boulder and the boulder that is downhill from Suzuki whose name I don't quite know. All in all I think that the session went quite well. We started out working this V2 that pulls out of a little roof and then makes a throw off of slopers out to a good jug and out the top. Starting out was frustrating because I just couldn't get the opening move to go. After reworking my beta a few times I finally was able to put things together and get that problem all sorted out and sent! Next, there was a V4 around the corner that I had worked on a day in the past but couldn't even pull onto it. Frustrating. Well after flailing on it for a few goes I finally, with the help of Wayne, was able to figure out the foot beta that lets me move off of my crossed hands and up to a small sharp left handed crimp. From the left crimp you stand hard on your right foot and the move right hand up into a good undercling pinch and the from there you take some small crimps out the top keeping the problem pretty sustained. So, that's two V4s sent here lately and I'm pretty psyched! It's great to feel and see yourself getting a little strong and your technique improve.
On another front, this summer hasn't quite been the luckiest I've had in respect to LCD screens. About a month ago I was getting out of Drew's jeep after running to town and then I slammed my phone in the door and shattered the face of my phone. It sucked. Well the day before yesterday I was getting ready for bed and kicked my laptop right onto the floor shattering the screen. It sucked too. So now I have to Blog and surf the net from a roommates computer and if anyone feels generous I'd be more than happy to take some donations to help towards the new screen which should cost about $150.
I hope everyone is doing well though and I only have two weeks until I'll be back home. Crazyness. I can't wait to see everyone again!
