We got in touch with Babsi shortly after her ascent to ask about how the flash ascent came about, why she wore three shoes during the Monster Offwidth, and which moments had her feeling the pressure:

More #climbing gear, hot off the Bernina. A chalk bag for lead climbing, to match the bouldering one I made a while ago. I'm particularly proud of the attachment system. Two Velcro straps that loop through the back gear loops on my harness, meaning that it stays where you want it, and the Velcro is swapped on each loop so you can use it as a single loop if you need. This is an iteration of the last one I made, but with chonkier fabric. #sewing #IDidAThing

Don’t you put any more stress on yourself It’s one day at a time —Mac Miller, “Circles” Part of me always thought I’d die young. I had this feeling even before I was a climber, long before I took the risks with our lives that we climbers take. It was probably related to the depression… https://climbingzine.com/the-dirtbags-arent-dead-theyre-just-in-mexico-by-luke-mehall-an-excerpt-from-volume-25/
