I was on vacation about a month ago, so I missed climbing that week, and I feel like I still haven't quite gotten back to where I was before -- exacerbated by the fact that the gym I climb at reset the routes, and I don't like a lot of the current routes.
But I had a lot more energy climbing this week than I have recently, and one of the 10A's I tried I initially couldn't figure out how to do the first move, but then my climbing partner climbed the wall and I tried it again and she had to talk me through a lot of the moves, but I managed to do them all -- and felt like I was learning things and developing skills, as opposed to the other 5.10A by the same setter we'd tried earlier that evening which she quit about a third of the way up and which I very much rainbowed the first half of because there was no way I could do those moves.
