Watch Luke Zimmerman on Hard Squamish Problem

Luke Zimmerman recently sent Something Wicked Extension, which was first climbed by Simon Parton in 2009 at V9. Zimmerman wrote on Sendage.com after, “A solid milestone on the way to bigger objectives. Linking the first two moves took me ages. I am going to go with a personal grade of V10, although maybe if I can get the heel hook to work it will feel easier.”

In the below video, Zimmerman is working on the more difficult top outs, known as Something Wicked This Way Comes V12 and Black Magic V13. Have a watch:

Another good day working on my new projects with @gabnamurti. I managed to link the opening boulder problem and complete the easiest exit. In the video I'm working the mid section of the two harder exits: Something Wicked This Way Comes (v12) and the main objective, Black Magic (v13). The moves are coming together but certainly linking them will be the real challenge. @fiveten_official #squamish #squamishclimbing #squamishbouldering #brandofthebrave #climbing_pictures_of_instagram #bouldering
