#Bouldering vlog
It's not always a success, even if my videos make it seem so
Spent half of the session today on this incredibly cool boulder. I'm puzzled for now: should I somehow get out of the heel hook that is blocking me from moving the body to the left? But how? The slopers are pretty bad, especially on this angle. Or just try harder?I'll hopefully figure it out next time. And now I have a pulled neck and holes in the skin from all the jumping and squeezing.

@creepy_owlet I feel silly trying to give you advice - you're quite a bit better than I am but
But I might try a right heel hook on the right-most volume before moving your left hand to the left-most?
If it's possible to twist that way 🥨

@codebyjeff thanks! I did consider that but it doesn't feel possible once you are there: the right sloper is pretty high up and my hand is nearly slipping..

@creepy_owlet Fun-looking bloc! Looks like there's a bunch of ways you could try, though some might be limited by how good the holds feel to you... On the other hand, by the looks of it, I don't think it's exactly the heelhook that's stopping you moving your body to the left! Your beta looks pretty solid so far.
