Sends in the LOC


John on When Stars Attack


John sending Dynamitus (V8)

A small crew of climbers from Fredericton was down to visit and get a tour of some of the bouldering around Halifax. I think everyone had some notable sends to put on their tick lists. John Bowles had an awesome day sending Dynamitus (V8) and Kleos (V11). He did both quite quickly with Kleos probably only taking about and hour of work - I will take some of the credit for giving perfect beta! Ha! We visited Nouveau Riche, Corn and Bung, Scoop, Area 51, and the House boulder.

My goal for the day was to climb as many problems I as could in the areas we went to. I think it was probably one of my better days in LOC.

My tick list for the day looked something like this:
Kleos (v11) - but I jumped off after matching the blocky jug...
Ressurection (v10)
Dynamitus SDS (V9?)
Dynamitus (V8)
Back on Track (v8)
When Stars Attack (V7)
Force du Sang (V7)
Imogen (V7)
Hoofmaker (V6)
La Vache quie rit? (V6)
Kirby's Jug Prob. (V6)
Can't trust skinny people (V6)
Joe Boxer (v6)
Pirranha (v5)
Captain Hook (V5)
Bop Gun (V5)
JACKS arrete (V4)
La Vie en Rose (v3)
Nouveau Riche(V1)
The Preview (V3)
Corn Holio (V3)
and some other easier problems...my skin was pretty trashed, but not as bad as Liam's!
