Off-width bouldering is interesting. Climbing this ~3 meter crack, which is only off-width for like a third of it in the middle, really put stuff like Wide Boyz into perspective. Not that they don't make it clear just how much pain and physical suffering goes into it, but still. I have rarely been so beat up from a boulder, felt like coming out of a wrestling match. And it's still like two full grades below what I consider myself climbing. 

Blisters are now healed, and looking forward to some hard training the next few weeks before Switzerland.

Förra veckan så barnfamiljsbouldrade vi i Focksta som ligger på hitsidan av Uppsala. En timmas resa från stan ligger detta ganska stora område som kryllar av schyssta problem i alla grader. Väl värt resan!
