Fell once. Put too much faith in a loose jam at the top - turns out the crux isn’t the crux for people with small hands.

Had a beaut run on this. First go on gear - retro flash. Loved the full jamming with hands and feet in (tight around the shoulders as its quite deep). Felt much less sustained this time.
Most placements done first go and even, so pretty confident. Used two racks of 1-4, plus one 5. |

Finally got it. Happy it was more jam than arm bar this time around. Fantastic climb. Recycling cams was a bit of a dodgy proposition - double, even triple fist and up is ideal. |

Nowhere near clean, but free climbed. Much better and jams, none of the fingery side crimps I've used in the past. Need to get start and mid section dialled, top half easy.

if you have short legs you can fit a kneebar in the fang and if your leg fits right you can get a full no-hands rest.

Objectively a solid 2 grades harder than ‘Lobster’ which is of similar style. Great route to force yourself to jam both hands and feet. Will be back for a proper red point.

What an experience! I finally got on this at around high tide when the combo of waves crashn and strong wind were threatening to drench my belayer (thanks Donovan) and added some motivation for me to get off the ground quickly! Not sure on the grade.. I'm not that good at jamming (as I suspect the majority who try lead this, why doesn't NZ have more cracks!) but getting better so tricky to know, not that it really matters. The sandbag of 16 feels kinda appropriate. Could have easily lost the flash as my arms got a bit pumped around mid height but I managed to keep it together, stoked on that.
