January 09, 2021 - Coming prepared.

As I wrote in my previous post, I still tried "Stargate (direct)" after having done "Manolo" last week, but despite finding a suitable method, I wasn't able to finish it then. With freezing temperatures and dry weather this morning, the conditions looked looked promising and I headed back to Justice de Noisy, looking forward to the sunny spot where "Stargate" always bathes in to.
With the moves and method that I worked out last week still in my head and seemingly still present in my muscle memory, I came very close to sending "Stargate (direct)" on my first attempt today, until part of the tiny crimp for the last move decided to break. I fell hard, but luckily I came prepared. Remembering the falls I made when I tried "Stargate" before the second lockdown, I carried two crashpads. Both of them served their purpose very well.
It was only a very small piece of the crimp that broke off, but I did use that tiny piece with the thumb of my right hand a lot to be able to reach high enough left hand and grab the jug near the top left hand. I definitely used it enough for it to break under the pressure. It turned out even, that I depended on that thumb crimp enough that I wasn't able to do it anymore. All that was left of the crimp right hand, was a tiny sharp edge that barely fit the tip of my index finger and half of my middle. I had to change my method and find another way to get into position for the last move.
It wasn't easy to find another method, and even though there was only a slight change, it still felt uncertain. Thanks to the many tries, I was able to cruise through the first part enough times to find a lucky moment where I could pull off the second until the jug and on to the top of the boulder.
Another very nice problem with great moves, opened by Tony Fouchereau and Thierry Vasseur!
