It’s been raining the last few days and I am so psyched to rock climb that I’m about to rip the rafters off the ceiling of our apartment. Here is a little unedited clip of my best go on The Story of Two Worlds V15. This was after about 30 minutes working on the bottom. The right hand that I cut feet into is the start jug of The Dagger V14. Obviously, I’m going to need a little better control of that swing… Anyways, I’m psyched to have a project and I can’t wait till this rain clears out…

Looks really hard, thanks for sharing!
How do you perceive the difficulty of doing the bottom part, linking into the starting position of the dagger? Can you compare it to another boulder problem? Also, is the beta you’re using the original way that Graham did it?
Make sure you get the send on video, that would be epic…
Good luck!
Chris
is that the right start?
isn’t the sit supposed to have more moves???!!???
“It starts with 7-Big moves at 8B or 8B+” (http://www.freakclimbing.com/modules.php?name=News&file=article&sid=389)
Hard, but not too crazy. I definitely couldn’t compare it to another boulder. Story is much harder than anything I’ve ever tried. I’m not sure how Dave did it. Dai showed me the send footage from his 2nd ascent of the boulder and the beta that I use is very, very similar to his.
It’s where Dave told me to start, and it’s exactly where Dai started for the 2nd ascent (he showed me the send footage). Not sure about that old news article. Could be some misinformation? It felt like maybe 8A+ climbing into The Dagger. Due to the physical nature of the climbing, it makes The Dagger much, much harder in my opinion.
