I like it, a good route. But I just can't get off the floor.

Any help appreciated.

How do you know it's a good route then?

Bored on a wet Sunday, I am sorry I can't think of a suitably witty reply.

I have memories of a long and precarious press move off a high foot in the first few metres, having done it last year. It was initially a bewildering start but once figured out felt 'knacky' rather than strenuous.

Maybe asking on UKbouldering (the beta - chuffing thread) should find you someone with a photographic memory who can be much more helpful than me. There's a long finishing move too, but that's just hard rather than devious.

Thanks John.

The long move at the top. Am I right in thinking you clip the 'chain' from the big undercut or is there meant to be another move for the full tick?

clip the chain from the undercut. It was getting established on the undercut properly that felt like the crux to me.

Thanks. For some reason I don't find that too bad. But literally getting off the floor feels impossible atm.
