    Crux is pulling your butt off the ground and making the first slap, I forget which hand you go with, after that V4 or so to top out.

    Original Name: Redneck Hole; FA: Jonathan Thesenga; 1999

    We started it low and left and climbed along rightward into the arete, and topped out above the "hole" (strange mantel), and then stemmed across to the other wall to escape.

    It sounds like the King Cobra way starts more underneath on a sit start, but haven't been back to this in 9 years.

    Hey Matt, what you describe sounds like what is now being called Rudy. People are starting KC down and right of the prow on opposing sidepulls.
