Chips - Joe's Valley, UT

Inertia Kick!
I have been working on inertia kicks in the gym and finally got to use it outside! Chips (V7) starts on underclings with a right knee bar. Right hand crosses to the incut crimp. Keep the left hand undercling as you move your left foot up on the rail below the right hand and the right knee bar turns to a right toe-hook. Left hand moves around the arete to a small incut dish. Switch feet on the rail and move left foot to a small edge below the left hand. Bump left hand to the flat side-pull, then bump again to the upper more vertical side-pull. The lower part of the side-pull is key because of the texture. Look up at the tick mark for the jug (you are going to throw blind to it). Do a small counter-movement with your legs and inertia kick with the right leg, hiii-ya!! The jug is gooood. My beta for the top is really bad, as I had no clue what to find up there and I am terrible at top-outs. The holds on top are a bit slopey but close enough to situate your body.
