Rockfax Description
10m. Climb the shallow groove precariously on sloping holds to reach the overhang and runners, including a fat thread. Climb direct or slightly right to finish. The escape out right is a cop-out, otherwise the route is high in the grade. © Rockfax

UKC Logbook Description
Once you have mastered the E1 entry groove (!) try the Ali Baba finish before you pump out, a cheeky rest round the corner is normal.

βeta: I believe the line described is the way Tony Marr did it - finishing up the right edge - it's the way I have always done it. Paul Ingham finished up the middle of the face off an undercut.
