Stretched Out

This the second crux of Just Say Go 5.10a!!! What an awesome Aret!! I love the static movement it takes to clip the bolt in some situations!

Doesn't look like you could reach it without standing up on your left foot.

Perfect! I'm getting on a waiting list right now for one of those operations that will make me bionic, or at least a bit more stretchable' lets say. It's a nice look too.

Thanks for the comments and yep the long arm made it!!! This climb was noted, "one of those climbs for taller people" Luckily some fancy footwork and my long arms made this climb a great experience!!

About the hamstring stretch...ya I am notorious for throwing the heel hook and by day four of climbing great heel hook stuff I was feeling some crampage in the hammy!!!

Glad everyone liked the picture, thanks again!!!

Just don't over-torso stretch for that move, as it looks like you may be about to have a 'wardrobe malfunction' as they say.

the motion in the left hand and rope is really cool. You can just feel that clip coming up with one sweep of the arm.
