POTS Season 2, Episode 28: The return of Mike Dominguez

We’ve got a few Star Wars themed episodes to close the season with a bang.

In this episode, MA Regional Marketing Assistant Kim Dallas needs help sending a black V2 out of the main cave at our South Boston, MA location. She calls in the big guns and leaves a message for our head route setter, Mike Dominguez “Mig.” The message is intercepted by route setter Danny Howard, “DH.” Let’s hope Kim can crush the problem on her own while Mike convinces Danny to come to South Boston. Set by Keith Nadeau, “KN,” this climb features a challenging roof section. While there are multiple ways to crush a problem, if this one gives you a hard time, try this beta on for size.
