Pulling the first hard move down low

Description 

One of the best V5s at Hueco. Don't be deceived by starting at the constriction between the floor and roof - look down into the dark depths for the real start. This climbs over 30 ft and you can step off at almost any point!
Start all the way at the back moving a bit left then back right into the ass-dragger constriction and a rest. Continue up the face with a heart-breaker pinch near the end.

Protection 

2 pads recommended down low, at least one at the main level and two over the boulders for the upper face. Something thin might be nice for the hard moves at the constriction.
