I really enjoy bold ascents like this, they just feel really fun and out there, and I love the feeling of mind control that leads to dangerous leads like this. It feels enjoyable and freeing.

Today for the first time tried climbing over 90° overhang, with partial successIt took 3 attempts to grab the first hold above the overhang with both hands and place my body horizontallyThis first part turned out to be way easier than expected. So for me the focus of the first week of training in 2025 would be practicing raising straight legs while hanging (instead of raising knees)It feels like completing this overhang with my current shape would be very hard, but still possible and worth trying#climbing

The penultimate round of the IFSC Boulder World Cup took place in Prague, Czechia last weekend. Dohyun Lee of Korea and Natalia Grossman of the USA won gold in two suspenseful finals. Great Britain's Olympic Champion Toby Roberts won bronze after a gutsy fight in the men's event. https://www.ukclimbing.com/forums/t.php?n=775030
