Climbing this boulder wasn't about the grade...

Climbing grades are a funny thing. Sometimes they're accurate, but often the number attached to your objective doesn't represent the full story. Learning to climb boulders or routes for the challenge (and not the grade) is a powerful lesson in climbing. I started bouldering in La Pedriza Spain in 2015 and Air 7C has always been one of those nemesis problems managing to slip through my hands on many occasions through the years. I had a chance to revisit this boulder in October 2024 and decided to make an unfiltered video to remember the experience. Will I finally send this boulder? Watch and find out!
