It was incredibly rewarding to say the least, a sensation which I find fades with time being in your top form, but after a solid break from climbing, it feels like we can never forget again how special it is to be able to push yourself and climb without apprehension or fear 🙌🏻 This line drew my attention immediately, not only because its a proud line, but for the incredible movement, aesthetics of the rock, and it’s beautiful location! After the initial phase of working out the beta, which I knew from climbing the two original lines on the boulder, there was a ton of subtleties and micro-beta to discover which only arose while making attempts to link the whole line. I was lucky to have super inspiring partners to try with like @diego__cameroni and @francescoberardino_ so it was always vibes, but as the season transitioned from summer to fall, I admit, the challenge become much more difficult then I expected. Conditions never really got better, a the low-percentage toe hooks really fucked with me, and the friction-dependent crux of Bonjour Finesse repeatedly thwarted me, despite having it super dialed. After falling off the last move so many times I figured it was in the bag, but NO. It was surprisingly resistent and I just couldn’t seem to relax and flow enough, using too much power, and not moving through the positions properly with the pressure of having to keep repeating the start. At a point, I resigned my expectations (as usual😂) and in this moment, I was able to put it all together ⚔️! It was the 1st of my hard Alpine projects to fall, and gave me some serious momentum and returned a lot of confidence. This helped me execute my next objectives when I found my rare chances to make real tries 🌀 Gottardo is ultra tricky to find sending conditions considering all the rain, fog, or heat 😵‍💫 So finding your window requires patience, strategy, and attacking without fear when the moment presents itself! Thanks for the brilliant photos @celinawielander 🔥」11月15日 2時16分
