Leavenworth: Cotton Pony Dyno & Stuff
The NC3 series wrapped up last weekend in whitman and what a fun series it was. I met a ton of other collegiate climbers as well as a bunch of pebble wrestlers. In the end, I took first over all in the series with my good friend Brian taking second and then the powerhouse Justin Wyse from Western squeaking into third. The comp was fun but they weren't prepared for the 'big guns' that showed up which led to ties and places being separated by falls. For open, it came down to one problem and I unlocked the sequence with on more fall than Brian. So, he finally beat me!
The previous weekend I did a solo mission out to levy and met up with Miles and Lisa. After trying a few things i ran into brian as he was trying his project, superman v10. After checking out a new area that day I also began to play around on the Ram v12 and managed to do a couple moves which surprised me and peaked my interest. On the way home I made a quick stop at Big booty bitch slap v10 and a after a few frustrating goes, unlocked the crux and sent! it made the trip worth it!
On Friday, we had a packed pilot consisting of Kevin, David, Chase and George. The first stop was mad meadows where i managed the finish of the ram. Now all i have to do is the crux! Kevin also made quick work of Hanta Mav v9 making it look easy! After the meadows we migrated our band of misfits over to forestland as david battled it out with the Coffee Cup v9. He came super close and will send soon. Next stop was was/is and derik gave was some good burns and Kevin stuck the iron cross on is. Then we made a quick detour to the Cotton Pony dyno v10 and i gave it a few burns, getting closer and closer until, i hit the lip and stayed! I was physched on getting this because in the past i thought, no way, the lip is miles away... I now can't wait to get this beast from the proper start. chase and george got footage so i'll piece it together with Miles send of pimpsqueak.
