My son And I took a great little mini trip up to Tuolumne Meadows and I got to actually send something! Here's Reach for a Peach, one of the hardest V6 boulder problems I've ever done. Damn I love Yosemite! Enjoy!

Very nicely done, although just watching that makes my knees hurt. Bouldering is definitely a young man's sport.
cheers

Yes dude!! You are on a tear lately. Your vids are psyching me up. R for a P is a JB special is it not? Looks beautiful. I would love to hear you describe those moves in words, along with the video.
Keep it up.

Thanks Friend, I'll try...
Start with a slightly shitty, pinchy sidepull with the left, and a small, irregular crimp with the right.
Right foot on a tiny nub, left comes into a heel hook on the arete.
Bear down on the right crimp, and slap your left up twice to a rounded small knob up high left.
Core in tight and bring the right foot over to a little knob near the arete, then reach for an incut crimp up right below the lip, where my feet cut, then right back to another left heel.
Some rounded holds get you over the lip.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
