V-4. Brawny route, all deadpoints, across a roof and up over the edge. It took about five tries but I did it. And I can do it again. Also a V-3 (one-move balance problem) and a bunch of other fun things.
Here's the thing about dynos. If you jump, letting go of the wall knowing you either make the move or fall, you are not just hoping you will beat gravity; you are spitting in gravity's eye. It is more than trusting that your strength, power and heart will take you to the next hold. It is also an act of hubris, and of denial.
When you dyno, you're a housecat hissing at a black bear. Also, when you live.
