Scary slab whips! | Boulderer goes sport climbing

I’ve been promising a sport climbing episode for ages and we finally did it! On Tristan’s suggestion (and against my better judgement) I took on a 7c slab project at Higgovale Quarry - we’re talking razor sharp 3mm crimps, crumbling feet and painful whips (a true slab experience).

This episode has been a month in the making. I really learned a lot over the course of filming and I hope you enjoy the ups and downs of my journey as much as I did.

Thank you so much to my sister Sofie for all the belays and to Tristan and Naadirah for filming.
