Rockfax Description
Short and sharp. Boulder up to the jug then make a desperate move left. Finish more easily up and right to the ledge. © Rockfax

βeta: Like Jim says the broken hold just means that the tall can't now lank through the crux and now have to do the hard move like everyone else. It makes no difference to everyone else | βeta? | |

βeta: The main difficulty with this climb is pulling left from the jug. A strong bouldery 7c+/8a climber is going to work out one of the ways to get to the jug, with or without the crimp out left. The left pull from the jug gets easier the taller you are and if you are short the move is much harder. In my opinion this move is the definitely the redpoint crux. | βeta? | |
