Description 

Grab the quartz holds above your head, hit the hold up and right pick some feet and throw. Classic problem, gets way easier the taller you are (felt V2 for me at 6ft, but guidebook gives it V4)

This is a great problem that makes you look like a stud when you grab the jug on the lip and swing out.


Location 

Start left of Whale's Tail approximately 15 feet at two quartz holds a little higher than your head.


Protection 

Pad, and a decent spotter for the swinging fall if you blow the dyno

with some weird feet and a drop knee i found this can actually be done as a really long static move...

I do this static as well. For taller folks it should go with no swing.

I was looking at this route the other day and I think this is actually the top out for V8 dyno problem Ginsus For Genius V8. I think this route actually starts on the bad seam to the right and throws to the Quartz jug up and right. It seems like it might actually be V4 that way :)
I double checked in the Kemple Guide and the descriptions read like this:

Ginseng For Ginsus V8: Sit Start on the steep wall with left hand on a small crimp and right on a sloper. Pull up and dyno to the sharp quartz jug. Top out straight up.

Pound for Pound: Stand start on the seam and dyno for the quartz. Top Out straight up.

This should be retitled and changed to V2. I figured we could call it Daily Dose. This would be the stand start to the V8 sit start called Ginseng for Genius V8, which start below on a crimp and sloper crimp.

The actual route Pound for Pound, at the grade V4, climbs the seam to the right.

If someone could change this it would be great!
