King of Limbs 8B/+

Più informazioni

In 2013 I had one very brief session on King of Limbs and in conclusion I was a country mile off the strength required for this boulder.

In 2014 it was one of four boulders I wanted to climb on my trip. I had three sessions before hurting my shoulder and it felt doable but looking back I am not sure I was strong enough. I probably only did the crux move once in each session and linking the first three moves; realistically I wasn’t even close.

To put in context how difficult King of Limbs is for me I think it is worth mentioning that in these two trips I ticked 24 problems of 8A and harder including seven 8B’s.

In 2015, after months of training, this is how it went!

I hope the video captures what King of Limbs means to me and how much I enjoyed the process of trying it; frustrating as that was at times! Also excuse the odd profanity but they are mumbled quietly!
