So cool you get to climb with your mom! I agree the anchor is a little funny looking… Seems like older techniques were used maybe? Either way, I enjoyed the vid
The dude leading this was putting up first ascents and sending climbs in the Valley before it was cool. He built it, that anchor wasn't going anywhere.
+VMFA134 honestly man, that anchor is terrible. There's a laundry list of things that are wrong with it. I know this post is pretty old, but I hope you've learn proper instruction since then. stay safe out there!
if u just would get in the crack from the get go.. and forget the tape u dont even need it on this climb ur in a crack for 5 seconds at the start "theres more in the bag mom" cause we are a bunch of weiners who need tape. ur skin gets better friction neway the cutting helps u stick... adds texture and friction.
i mean like 3 minutes and ur not even up the crack, use ur feet. i know it hurts but its bomber like a ladder. "much better holds garrett" .... your in a crack sir. no need for holds
hahaha well looking back on this I totally can laugh along with you. My infant climbing days...
