Climbing evening.


That was hard training - really lots of traces starting from coupled simple down to new really complex ones.
I also tried two traces on the negative slope - one 6a+, which I failed on-sight, but just because of lack of knowledge about the trace (poorly selected holds, did not see some of them and so on), so I think I will complete is next time without any problems, and one quite complex 6c, which I managed to finish, but starting after about the last thirds I fell after two-three holds, since I was tired completely. Eventually I finished the trace, and that was really goot one, I will try it next time definitely.
The last trace was with bottom rope on the negative slope, but since I was too tired, I was not able to complete even half of the trace (6a+/6b) without fall, and eventually that became stupid set of falls after one-two holds, sometimes I felt several meters on the rope, but I was asked to put the rope into the trace, so I needed to complete it even without any power.
Hard and quite exhaustive, but really good training.
