Comments: Really nice short finger crack; long moves between juggy finger locks. Great fun. Eats stoppers.

Comments: Takes some 0 and 00 TCUs, or equivalent. Soft and sandy rock at the start doesn't inspire much confidence in the little cams; sewing it up is definitely justified. Nice moves, though, and probably still worth doing.
