[Hide Comment] In need of some beta for the diagonal sorta off width crack after the 4th bolt. I had gotten in my right forearm towards the bottom of the crack and was able to lock off, got my left fist in a hold, enough to remove my right hold. I tried feeling around for a right hand outside the crack but couldnt find a good hold.
need help!!
