Anyone else Samming their Prior to this right now?

Wow poor Ben had to remove an entire wall and redo everything because Sam couldn't stop SMEARING on the neighboring moon board

Love these vids! I disagree on the first boulder, it really looks benchmark-worthy. I obviously haven't tried it yet, but just from watching, it doesn't look like you can "simply" break it. Frances wasn't able to, and Sam bloody climbs V15, so of course he's going to break a V6. Oh... new vid idea: Sam tries to break as many benchmarks as possible!

On the 1st bouldrer you should probably have tried the original beta as well to see if it wasnt easier than the skip. If the skip is harder than otherwise I think it could still get benchmarked

Can we get more of a glimpse of the new moon spray wall… looks unreal! But good climbing. Need to get back on 2024 board, local is a 2016.

i've recently done all the 6a+ on the 2019 masters and im soon done with the 6bs but i think some of the 6a+ were much harder than some 6bs. I am new but this is very confusing for me. Glad to get to see the process for some insight :hand-purple-blue-peace:
