Description

This is the other side of Hand Bannana. Start on the fists at the bottom of Hand Bannana and kick into the offwidth below and in front of you. Follow the offwidth as it goes down and around the bulge, eventually narrowing to fists and then flared tight hands as the angle eases up. The crux on this is probably somewhat fist size specific, the larger your hands, the easier this problem will be. Very fun and physical.

Location

Find Hand Banana, and go under it. Turn around, and you will be facing it.

Protection

A pad.

[Hide Comment] Since putting this up, I have taken several strong offwidth climbers out to this. Scarpelli saw how it was done and he speculated that doing laps on this would get you ready for just about anything. Jul 30, 2009
