Cassie crushes Gleaner

So far this week we've been focusing on projects. None of mine have gone down yet, but Cassie finished up one yesterday. It's called Gleaner and is a solid v6 (looks harder than this for her) and required a huge reach. Believe me it was a struggle to get to the pocket. After she got the pocket she went to a terrible left hand instead of the better pocket, missing the good one by about half an inch. You can hear me telling her to go further right to the good pocket. Cassie calmly tells me she knows and finishes the climb. I was terrified she was going to fall because she was on the worse hand. Still don't know how she held on to that bad hand. Funny how you sound on video, Cassie grunts a lot on this one :)

So, here's a sneak peak of one of our bishop trip videos.
