Yes, it was slush cupā¦but it was also almost 20° in Castlegar, so fšck it we went bouldering! It was a short but awesome session. Old Man Flux sent his first (and only š¤Ŗ) problem post shoulder surgery, then spent an hour on top supporting his minis while they sent, and sent, sent, sent.
Awesomeness in order:
1 - family selfie after we all sent āCrack & Areteā at the Lizard Boulder.
2 - Mini V cruising on lap 2 of the 3 she did. I couldnāt film her casual mantle, since I felt I needed both hands to help, even though she wouldnāt let meš„². Sound on for Coach Greg beta!
3 - Mini M being goofy mid climb
4 - Mini V chillin on the down climb slab
5 - the best coach around helping on the down climb slab (he went up and down 4 times instead of climbing himself š„°, but at least clocked his first V5 of the season after we left!)
6 - The best shot we could get of Mini V unexpectedly sending āThe Snakeā V2! We stacked 3 pads so she could reach the starting crimps, then I supported for the dodgy overhanging feet, but she didnāt need it and kept going šŖšŖšŖ
7 - Team down climb after Coach Greg, Dr. Jeff, and Mini V all sent āThe Snakeā
