#Split The Difference - The Split Rock

2 major crux's for the route:
Cx1 - The overhang is messy to manage, mainly because Aava insists on turning herself into a pretzel if you don't manage her limbs properly. Combined with basically no good holds aside from minor rails, you'll need to use body positioning well to get through the first crux.
Cx2 - The second crux is an extended vertical rail that requires precision and speed to navigate. Move quickly and place your hands accurately on the arete or Aava will run out of steam almost immediately.
After the second crux, the final runout is very straight forward to the finish.

Yeah again this is already a route.
It's a variation of the variation. Dracula Overbite into a Sharkfin And it's done buffless.
might as well be it's own route
So, because it’s buffless it gets its own name? If I climb through cookie cutter buffless and end out right do I rename that?
It’s literally two of my routes connected. There is nothing new created here. It’s just buffless.
Ok, sorry. Tho would be impressive if you climb cookie cutter buffless. I would've let you rename it, but Raydan would be upset.
Lol Probably. Cookie Cutter is impossible buffless. I was bluffing. You know it, and I know it. Lol
But you see my point
I didn't think this one was possible buffless either.
Yeah, but this is way easier than CC. The first time I did it by accident with chalk only. Took a bunch of falls but I got up it. Also, the only reason I ended Drac left was to stay off SharkFin but even mentioned that either ending is suitable. This is just a ripoff route like Conduit.
I actually submitted this before I knew it was 'Dracula' so you can delete it if you want. I just didn't see anything immedaitely for it before posting. I just didn't look hard enough.
No one can delete it but you.
You can type in the area in the searchbar for the planning section. It makes it much easier to see what’s been put up. I know you were around a while back, but it’s been a minute since you’ve been back. Lots of routes went up. There’s still plenty left to find but you should check out what exists before submitting a route as FA that already exists.
didn't mean to offend, holy smokes. YOu got it boss, I'll delete it.
I meant this to be informational. My tone is horrible online and I'm working on that. Sorry. I'm not trying to offend or be rude, just trying to help you if you didn't understand how the system sort of works now. It's honestly not a very robust system.
I gotcha. Thanks for the follow up, I appreciate that. I've been holding off on submitting anyway recently, just because I felt like it was myself and like 4 other people that basically ran a monopoly on the demo routes and stuff. I'll let you guys work out a system in your own time lol
Yeah, I can understand the monopoly thing. In the beginning, I was posting too much. About 5 routes a day. It became a problem.
Over the last 10 days I’ve been holding back from posting as often. I find probably 10 routes a day and only post 2/3 a week. I’ve even had to erase some routes to allow others to get some in.
At this point I’ve sworn off putting routes on intended sections to allow others to put up stuff. I even started looking into aid shit to get my fix.
Sad thing is, there’s not many people posting routes. Probably 20. If that.
Thats okay though. Not like it has to be a full time job for anyone or anything.
And we get to sit back and watch other discover cool shit.
I'd suggest keep cataloging for yourself and if they dont pop up in due time, then trickle them into the chat.
Ill do the same.
Yeah, I have a bunch I’m going to not post to the website. 19 to be exact. Once the website updates I’ll have a clear idea of what can be deleted
