BETA PHOTO: Bulging on Bob's Bulge.


Description 

This cool problem is reachy. It starts midway through the undercling traverse. Start with the left hand in the obvious undercling and right hand on a bad sloper. Throw your heel out right and start slapping up the bulge on some very difficult reachy moves.

I believe you begin matched in the underclings.Body tension is key through the entire problem.

This problem was originally done by Bob Williams in 1969 starting on the rail and trending left to the top. Jim Holloway was the first to start from the good undercling in 1974.

IMHO, the original problem is V5 in and of itself. Coming out from underneath the bulge is cruxy and quite a bit tougher.
