Start on wall to right of the roof. Traverse roof leftwards on slots, edges, pinches etc to exit on left. One of the most impressive roof problems in Africa and the hardest at the Topside.

Do marlboro man but when you get the high slot move right to a big bread loaf pinch and top out right.

Around 8A/8A+, follow arete, exit up face about half way.

Cool new line on the bloc opposite Art of War the sport climb in Kalk Bay. Took me a while to figure out if it went at all after James Barnes and I spotted it in 2017. Cool crux revolving around a bad right hand sloper and a very hectic left heel which leads into a very sustained ending few moves. - Chev

Video

Start as The Cave Dweller but climb out to the left

📹 Video

Start as for Slot Machine, climb right into Artform.

Climb Berties but finish up break from reality.

Video - Nick Allan

Start on the sloper/dish hold on the arete and climb directly up and out the face. Hard, weird moves.

Sharp right exit to Steady Plums

Matthew Hill

James Barnes

Sit-start on the slopey crimp rail and do some hard, footless campus moves until you can top-out.

Ascent by Nicholas Allan

Carlo Traversi added a move to Paul's original route.

It appears that in some cases this route has since been called "The Life Aquatic" and the original renamed to "The Life Quack Quack"

Grade still contested.

Amazing power rig on top of the hill. Sits next to a 7C roof I can't remember the name of. Starts the same as that one and trends up and left to top out. Sick. - J Webb

Cool new one that starts just left of Ryan Was Here and climbs into Doubt & Expectations. Needs more sends to asses the grade - Rowan Toselli

Second Ascent by Paul Robinson

Probably around 8A, sit start using good underclings, top out straight up. The sidewall on the far right is off.

SS with LH on jug, move up to slopers, then big move with LH up left to poor crimps, then TO straight up.

SS as for Soaring Bandicoot, move up and R to small crimps, then straight up the wall via crimp/slot

SS on jug on arête, traverse the face R along the seam via crimps and slopers, TO as for Vajra

SS as for Dark Lord Sharon, traverse R on sloper to join Schwann Ping, TO as for Schwann Ping

Standstart in undercling/sidepull feature, up to flake/crimp (of Brick Top). TO.

One of the best anywhere - Marijus

Start on the horn and climb right into cytokine. Before doing the top traverse left with knee bar and top out into scoop.

Climb diagonally R.

FA by Nicholas Allan

On the Best Thing Since Resting boulder. Sit start on right hand side, traverse diagonally up left on small holds.

Video

Start on the underclings below the crux of Drag Queen and climb into it. Adds a pretty savage move to the crux sequence.

WOW Griff classic! Amazing Scary Big Line following a crack to hardcore finish! Sick - G Gu

Old F3 project?

F3: Start with left-hand in pocket, right hand on edges and feet above break. Dyno up right to small shallow pocket on small slab above then top out.

Climb up the centre of the face. Really cool - used to be a project in Guy Holwill's guide.

Based on comments, there appears to be yet another variation:

Did the complete traverse, past the "low start" and past the "original start". Start with underclings on the fin out right. Still cheap, just sort out your beta. - Mathieu Schneuwly

Looks like FA goes to Mathieu Schneuwly but I'm unsure.

Start on the right in undercling thing and come climb past the low start into the pocket start

-drew

Original route started as shown in the video. Many grade opinions going as low as 7a+.

Really condition dependent - Robbie Fraser

Video of Robbie Fraser 2012

Do Sangoma sit-start and from two edges dyno straight to the top, skipping the crux far left crimp of the original line.
