[Hide Comment] Tension moves off of sustained slopers make this a unique route, very different from anything else I did in the Obed Jun 3, 2013

[Hide Comment] Such a solid sustaining route! Will test your sloper power and balance! When sending, ended up skipping the last bolt and busting up to the ledge under the roof. Mar 25, 2015

[Hide Comment] 10c/d if you have good movement and a little forearm strength. great friction, good slopers. worth doing, easier than 'IT' Mar 9, 2016
