Just getting into the 1st sloping crimps on this t...
Description
Start on high foot laybacking sloper (get Srunchy). Pull to sloping crimp. Continue up hard unsteady crimps (may want to have your pad moved for minor traverse to top-out). Top it out.

I really like this problem. It took me forever to do it because I just couldn't commit to the slab. My feet just didn't want to stick. For what it's worth, I found this a bit harder than Ride the Lightning.
I heard once that the orriginal line started a bit to the left, with a stand start off of some crimps, above the sit start variation (Polish Terrorist, V8.) I still haven't sent either variation but I like the "original" line better because the high right foot described above just annoyes me.
I agree that this is a harder line than Ride the Lightning... Lightning took me a handful of tries where terrorist took me over a year of off and on attempts... likely more than 50 tries...
