Air Test – 5.13a ^↓

Skaha > Great White

38m / 125ft, 18 bolts

Description:

This is a classic skaha line. Bolted by the legendary Hugh Lenny, this line takes an impressive vertical endurance route up the impressive and aesthetic teen wall. The pitch is slightly marred by improved holds near the middle, however they do connect a blank looking part of the wall to the upper portion of this great, long route.

All the stars for this one! Loved the process of dialling in the many moves. Sent it on a beautiful golden evening with my good friends cheering me on!

Took alot out of me. Had never really practiced the top half on the send, so almost blew every move after the midway anchors, barley squeaked it.. still went though!! First of the grade

Tried this line 3 years ago and gave it 2 attempts, came back this trip and did it 3rd try! I found the first pitch the most difficult portion of the climb, guidebooks says 12c but I’d say it’s more 12D. The upper half adds some very pumpy and technical climbing but with a bunch of good rest spots throughout. Truly one of the best climbs I’ve done of the grade !

An exercise in pump management. Felt good to no hang the proj... did not believe I had any chance to send this route until it happened. Skipped many a clip and tested all the air working the moves. Once again I owe it to the hype crew and Sam’s belay stoke! What an adventure!

Tried this one time in 2015 and got wasted pumped and raged that the drilled holds were so far apart then broke a foot hold a bolt higher then came down. Today I sent Pressure Test and then sent Air Test first try right after. Cool to see the progression when you come back and cruise things that were desperate for you in the past.

2nd go. Great way to start the trip. Hardest moves are on first pitch.

Great climbing, if you can ignore the "alterations". No really hard moves, but boy is there a lot of them!

This is a stout 12b, not a very good warm up either Maybe 12c?

Awesome climb. Hardest climbing is below the 1st anchor. Need an 80 m to get off from the top. 5th burn.

Wow! A lot of climbing with a possible heartbreaker at the top. Excellent! A case where chipping helped add 10m more of great climbing that may have never been touched otherwise.

Climb the bottom portion with two moderate crux sequences to just below the mid-station and big hold... take time to milk the rest. Climb thru a few 'unique holds' and into another moderate crux. Hang on until the finish... an endurance fest more that a power route...

Fantastic route! so fun, to bad about the chipped holds but a more reasonable sustained climb because of them. Really glad i saved this one, almost got on it a few times before.

A true endurance climb, made possible with four drilled pockets (and some 'enhanced' edges I'm sure). Should be named Guilty Pleasure. Felt easier than Breakfast of Champs.

Absolutely epic. Almost dropped it several times before the chains was so pumped. Totally underestimated the top section. One of the best experiences climbing yet for me. Spring 2023
