Possum lips, for me..

Dracula sure had some hard but delicate opening moves. And even some more trickiness at the end.

Henry!

Check your grip is no ladder.

Harder than your husband

8-ball

And most technical, least ladder-like of all: Chainsaw

Zendebad tops the list but Child of the Earth and Barbed Wire also come to mind.

Haven't done them... but from the looks of em, I'd nominate Dracula 04, Samurai, Super Slab, and Swine Flew.

I found Posse Whipped hard. In fact I couldn't do it. But you guys are welcome for the draws that hung on it for two months while I tried.

iron lung
swine flew

Despite what people think, there is technique to climbing steep jug hauls and crimp ladders. The technique of efficiency, resting, and pace.

hen-ry
yellow brick road
check your grip
lobster claw - still one of the best cruxes
spirit fingers
strevels gets in shape
fire and brimstone
bessie
head and shoulders - funky
i'll take sally/you take sue
all things considered
snake
into the light
overlord
stella
scrambled porn - if you want VARIETY get on this

it's all technique. i always feel like i don't send until i've learned whatever the route was supposed to teach me. it might be as simple as a foot place to as complex as overcoming myself. its all technique

indeed, i was convinced this blank-looking thing was a 5.10 one day and decided to jump on it b/c it looked so sweet (no i wasn't high). stick clipped to the 1st, then the 2nd, then the 3rd. then my ass left a bail biner and came down!

i can't wait until the day when i can come back and give this beautiful thing a real run for the money!
