Ascent Notes for: Different strokes - 5.11c Average Rating : 4.06/5

Cool pockets and edges. Always side pulling or pinching till I crack climbed up high.

over before you know it.

Hand jam! Leg jam! Sidepulls! Start was trickier than I anticipated, then just a matter of fighting the pump.

getting into the hand jam

.

tricky holds that pump you out. that hand jam eats your hand.

Use that hand jam, and the jug to the right of the last bolt!

underclings!

A year later, with little training since last August, and I sent this one in three tries. Very surprised at my success.

lena told me i couldnt record it, buy hey i tried to put it in under an A0-aid climb but it screwed with the consensus rating! anyway i hung the draws for her on lead and ill record it as a top rope hangdog (with the A0 in my book!)...ill go back to this one for sure. fun crux-ish move off the handjam...

*it took me ten minutes to get it to 'un-update' the
A0 i put on...would have felt like an ass had i screwed up the rating for everyone!
