Super Mega Destroyer – 5.13b


21m / 69ft, 9 bolts
FA: Andrew Funk - 2016-08-13

Description:

The route is actually 10 bolts

Three bolts of moderate climbing up compact limestone to a no hands. Continue up a brilliant, technical, fingery, vertical sequence leading up the engaging blue and grey steaks launching into the crux of the line which happens to be a very physical boulder problem to gain the bulge onto the incredible head wall. Execute a few crucial foot moves to get into a moderate shake on a trio of killer, flat grips. Continue up a cool lay-back crack sequence up hero jugs in an overhanging dihedral into some amazing rock then onto some easy climbing to the chains.

    Bouldery but really really good climb! and I can imagine blowing of the 12- upper section as well easily :) gradewise I would stick to upper end 13b. Couple moves feel harder than on other 13b's however there is not many of them and could be easy tick for boulderers.

    Stellar climbing with a nails crux, I'll definitely be doing this one again. Though the guide book gives 13b, it's a new route, and it seems most people have given an up arrow or called it 13c. I've climbed a number of 13b routes this summer, and this was significantly harder. I also feel the crux suited my bouldering background, a high heel and a big lock off. It will be interesting to see where the concensus falls, I feel it is likely a solid 13c.

    Warm up your tendons and get ready to boulder! There are some fantastic possibilities for movement on this beauty including a dyno and and some crazy high heel hooking. As it was given a slash grade: I did stepping stone in a session and Whaleback (5.13c) in 1.5 sessions. This climb took four.
