Amazing ending. Never touched it before the jug disappeared but the sustained element of the route now makes it into an instant classic

Hard

super

First of the grade. I really enjoyed becoming a proper leadclimber for this one. Almost a little sad it's over. Probably around 10-15 sessions over a year. Big thanks for all the belays (Anders, Robert, Johannes) and a special thanks for the sendbelay Rickard!

mega

Better finish than I thought

Pumpfest

A bit of everything :)

Super! Somewhere in-between a boulder and a route. Felt harder than any other 8a I've done by quite a margin.

Climbs really well. Individual moves felt easy today, but I had barely enough endurance. Made for a spicy send!

Went down easier than expected. Something in between an indoor/outdoor route

2 tries last year. 2 tries this year. Chipped but worth climbing for sure.

Crimpy in two section. Goes out to the arete at the end. 2nd go

Sam woke up on the onsight. Not sure if i would have done it first go though. Last part over the lip was pretty scary :)

A lot harder than similar routes on Kalymnos

Not harder than Freaky deaky direct. The rest before Totalvägra crux is too good to make it 7b+.

Flows better than the original. But it's not harder. Atleast not the way I did the original.

Crux felt hard in the sun, 20 degrees without wind. 3rd go

Few tries a couple of years ago. Got it on my first go this time.

Too polished

Should have been 2nd but pulled down a jug and fell off the finish. Didn't affect the grade, sent it on my 3rd.

4th go! Screamed myself through the upper crux. Came up to the upper crux on my third go but didnt have my head with me for the big move. On my forth i promised myself I would'nt say "take" and it went. Amazing route!

2nd. First try i dogged it up.

6 tries in total. Last three with the new bolt-line from Johan Luhr, not going out to the left in the beginning. Pretty much the same difficulty as before, maybe 2 shakeouts less but doesn't affect the grade.

Crux felt easy. Very pumpy and a bit hard to read.

2nd

Maybe soft. Not very pumpy as the name suggest.

Hard to get from the last bolt to the anchor. Might be harder than 6b+ because of it.

2nd try. Went out to the tufa blade in the crux. Much more beautiful sequence that way. Not sure about the grade. Probably just a harder 7a.

3 gos last year. 3 this time! Amazing route and my first 7b+

2nd go

3rd try. Ugly crux but the rest is amazing

First multipitch! Thanks Anders for going with me!

Felt off my game. Took 3 gos

2nd go.

4th try. Should have been 3rd but messed up a clip. First 7b for me. Great climb!

Super!

2nd try. Supernice, seriously.

Felt harder than most 6c i've done. 2nd try.

2nd

2nd try. Very cool varied climbing. Pockets, crimps, bouldery start and a decent kneebar. What else to wish for!

Such a beautiful line with bouldery moves on perfect tufas and a cool deep knee-bar. It's a little bit short for 3 stars :)

Unbelievable consistent 6a/+ for 40 meters.

Hardest flash. Very cool tufa climbing!

Superb!

sharp and not worth climbing to be honest.

Varied with a fun crux and then brilliant and easy tufa climbing.

Cool stemming and very different style from what i'm used to. Felt very hard. I agree with the grade in the new guidebook.

Second try. Hard changing side with a faraway gaston hold.

3rd go. Enjoyable with a one crux move that makes the grade.

Weird crux

2nd go. First attempt was beta finding :)

Third go. Should have been second but messed up last clip. Enjoyed it!

Very cool slab at the end. Enjoyable!

First 7a! Nice movements on mostly jugs. Very pumpy! 4th try
