Cyrus Huang

trad climb, nuts only till fixed anchor

didn't do the jump, went left to the arete to go around

climbed with crack gloves, which helps a lot

A soft 7b. The crux sequence pumps your arms out within seconds especially for those of us who hate crimp

The overhanging arete seems intimidating, but filled with surprisingly good cut and pockets. One of the easier 7a in the area

3rd attempt in total. Quite a challenge for newbie in crack climbing

I think the crux of this pitch is harder than next pitch

single move crux

Assuming some good holds has been chipped off, it doesn't feel like a 6a+ at all

still took me a few attempts to send after top roping just a week ago. I'm so stupid. Having the rope in the way definitely add the scare factor...

First go today. Holds are freezing, but the crux doesn't seems to be as hard as last year. Maybe the cold help, or I have better pump resistance now

thanks to my belayer's reminder on where the holds are, hard to spot otherwise

I think it's harder than Unnamed1. The start might be very hard for climber shorter than 170cm

From 2nd to 3rd bolt, t's actually easier to climb on the face than from the crack once you know the moves

one of the scariest (slab) 6a+ I climbed in Hong Kong... exposed view

Started under the 1st bolt, which is rather hard for a 6a. Perhaps we should start on the far right?

took me about 8 attempts in total? send on 2nd attempt of the day, after putting all draws up from 1st attempt.

2nd attempt since forever. Still need beta from friend midway.

pre-clip the 2nd bolt first! Otherwise, you may risk a ground fall

technical manoeuvree required

shorter climber may have harder time at the crux, but at least no need for dyno

dyno through the crux is likely the easier beta
