Rockfax Description
Start in the middle of the slab, at some sloping holds, and a short vertical flake. Make perplexing pebbly moves to gain the ledge and an easier finish. Highball f6A+ but awkward to pad. © Rockfax

FA. Bob Brayshaw 1960.

βeta: Agree with John's comments - palm and pebble combination works wonders. See Fawcett On Rock for beta :) Another quality slab, the line of features makes it possibly the best on the slab. Again you can fall but you can't bounce.

βeta: Not exactly polished but not as rough as the surronding holds. Palming/pushing down helps on this one. The main difficulties not being to high off the deck.
