Imposter Syndrome 14a
What a fight in the end. Even with a last minute beta change I still barely made it to the mid way shake. The victory climbing after that was relentless and when I made it to the chains I was destroyed. The send Gods must have been shining on me. 🙏
As far as the grade goes, I used alternate beta for both the intro boulder and the main crux. With my beta the link up felt like 13d and Imposter feels like soft 14a. That said, the OG method deserves mad respect. I’ve tried the opening boulder a bit and could probably figure it out with a bit of work but the main crux feels impossible for me. The route is one you’ll have to choose our own adventure on but no matter which way you slice it your slab skills will be tested.

Great job, cool to see the line get climbed another way! Climbing is inherently a bit contrived, and perhaps a little more so than usual on this route. That said, it might be more appropriate to call this Imposter Syndrome variation or something, to preserve the identity of the original line.
