26 | ★★ Redacted 1 (Social Retard) - with Kieran Lawton | 30m, 4 | Arapiles | ★★ Very Good | Thu 12th Nov 2015 | ||||
Really good, 4 x 23ish cruxes, a slopey bulge, a technical footsy traverse, a powerful iron cross, and a technical crank at the end. A great mirror image to Birdman.

The moves at the top are too hard for me. But, maybe I just need to learn how to do pinky-down-locks better.
Seems a couple of grades harder than the Direct Finish. |

With Simon. An outstanding lead by Simon. I loved the cruisy start, the thin traverse (we're talking fingernail crimps and matchstick edges), and the super lactic diagonal (which turned my forearms to wood).

Can't believe I managed to pull through this one fiddling with gear. What a LINE!! Quite an easy start leads into a quite technical and foot work intensive crimp traverse with now gear, and then up into a super burley lay back flake that wraps its way around the face with smeared feet... really thought I was going to blow it at any moment but held on.. really enjoyed the fight!

Pretty tickled to have gotten the onsight of this. Just fantastic technical movement! Definitely up my alley. All the gear that you could want but you might want to climb on double ropes (as I did) to use it. Rope 1 for the start, rope 2 for the 1-3 pieces after the traverse and then back to rope 1 for the rest of the route.
