Start on the right, move left and top out.


Description 

Obvious bald low-ball boulder on right just before warm up area, by V2 My Ass.

Start on the right on a decent hold sitting, move up and left using the super-hard slopers and the start hold as your only foothold. Keep moving left fighting the urge to poop yourself or fall (or both), until you reach a small hold wayyyy out left that is just good/positive enough to stick on and pull the rest of your body over to top out.

Check it out in the film Uncommon Ground

I have not ever sent this problem, just thought it warranted a spot in the databse, if anyone has climbed this route, speak up, tell me about it, let's update the description.


Location 

Just before the warm-up area on right. Just left of V2 My Ass.


Protection 

Pad, maybe two if you are short a spotter.

This is a sick lowball. Slap those slopers hard and use that starting jug to your full advantage...it's hard to keep yourself from falling off, even when you get the finishing hold, since you're all over the place at that point. The mantle's tough and not elegant.

This was originally flashed for the FA by a guy named Brian from Boston. He named it "Gran Torino". "The Bitch" was its name when it was being projected by Joe & Tim.
