Evan Hau does the FA of John Doe's Space Adventure (9a)
Can you tell us more about the FA?
I tried it a little bit back then but there were 2 cruxes that seemed really hard and I couldn't do it at the time. I had other projects to work on as well so I left John Doe's Space Adventure alone for a while. In 2023 I ended up spending some time at Planet X again and I felt much stronger after 2 years of training and working on Fight Club. I got inspired to work on John Doe's Space Adventure as a side project. It took me about a month to work out the beta I couldn't do in 2020 and then still another 2 months to send. Super happy with how it turned out, one of my favourites on the wall!
