So, it’s called like this because its a link-up between several routes…
ALI BABA, which is a route without rope, and HULK.
And so it becomes ALIHULK.
but then you have to add also a "SIT" start and a “TOTAL” exit.
The 'Sit Start' is not a very hard section, but it adds almost 20 moves to the 'Non-Sit Start' which is already a 9a+
Then you get to a heel hook rest and from there the 9a+ section begins
As soon as you start here,  there are a couple of easy movements on tufas
and then an opening from a gaston to a good hold that I found quite hard…
From there you enter the boulder problem where I felt
good since I had to enter with a drop knee
The holds were small but close enough and there were always good holds for the feet to make the moves.
From there you get to another rest
and then after another boulder sequence you arrive
at a complete kneebar rest.
- And you fell
- And I fell because
- And you fell
I looked at it a bit too quickly and I messed up the foot movements
On the first day I had found a method but then it was too hard to link it.
Yes it’s strange because starting with a boulder and finishing with the rope is a bit bizarre
but here its important to rest properly because there’s still an 8c+ to climb with the rope
First part is a 8b+, and it’s a bit strange because there are a lot of movements
for the first time I was able to pass the section without the rope so when
I arrived at the rest I got excited and started to climb badly and making mistakes
and so I fell…
From Fridays experience I learned that I had to keep calm and focused while climbing
so I got there with less anxiety because
the day before I’d already been able to arrive to the rest
so I climbed well until the following kneebar rest.
And its from this point that 'Extension' and 'Total' Parts of the route start.
I was actually able to recover well at the final rest
the last part is not so hard
so I knew I could do it.
Eventually I changed method three times,
The day before sending the route I had found a way that made it easier for me.
Actually what I look for when I do the routes is getting to the limit..
What’s important in the end is to find something that motivates you…
