went to CA to climb, as in literally climb! Like a vertical climb climb and not just bouldering climb :p Crystal and I completed a number of routes which fully maximised the two broke girls' utility so it was a happy climb! She kept saying she was so happy, well too bad the broke girls didn't have enough moolah for a rope. but well, warm up it is :) 8 climbs. but the purple route was hard. freaking hard. there were 2 tiles that were so untouchable, even so, i tried to put weight on 'nothing' and tried the move. fell. tried abt 3 times before i figured and familiarised how i should do it and.. i did it! :D okay there is A difference between 6As and 6B+s but the standards were not the same throughout so oh wells. that probably was just a 6A. next target is to borrow harness from sch and climb outside!
AND AND AND!
there were two climbers in CA too, sp girls or ex-sp girls if i'm not wrong. they did interesting orientation-like climb; climber closed eyes to climb while belayer give instructions as to where the next tile is. and they finished it based on trust. very entertaining especially when climber gives the 'what's next' sign in a hurry. haha.bang bang!
