Surprisingly my foot blew just at the second, missed the on-sight attempt. Also feels harder than 19.

This feels way stiffer than an 18, especially for the amount of delicate sloper moves.

-1 star, though maybe hot steamy conditions reduced enjoyment levels, the mantle after the second felt tough for the grade, and the run-out from 3-4 though easy climbing felt pretty excessive maybe nearing ground fall.

Short and and hard moves with a blind reach for the last move. Definetly feels a bit sandbagged, but might be reasonable with perfect beta.
