1 Sit Down Flake

Fun short problem on the flake detached from the egg. Can be done as a bathang for a harder variant.

One move wonder on the broken chunk of Dino's Egg. Yabo start on the low edge, fire to the high crimp and then the lip. Bat hang for style points.

V2 Boulder
2 Pitch Two

Short overhanging problem featuring tensiony heel hooks, slapping and a very hard exit mantle.
