After almost literally sh*tting myself while belaying, went on to more metaphorically doing the same on the pinkpoint. Probably better to bring enough bolt plates rather than slinging carrots with nuts. Gear beta seemed reasonable - set of offset alloy nuts and a green/red would suffice.
Damn slabs. |

This is excellent, every bit as good as electric blue and really not too hard for the grade. Climbed on a 56ish metre rope and juust touched back down. Onsight after splitting off from electric blue.
It seems some people have logged this route when they meant to log Under Pressure. There is no broken crux hold on THIS route. |

A real shame about the broken crux hold. As it stands it is an absolutely nails move totally out of character with the rest of the route. If it were more consistent it would be an ultra classic 21/22. Delicate climbing the whole way with very spaced bolts adding to the journey

could not do the crux, had to A0 it, other than that, clean. The hold at the crux seems to have lost most grip since the route was open, I tried it and did not seem to be a 23 move, not even 24 or 25 move. The route would be fabulous if not for this issue.
