Description
The lowest right sit start for Gates of Ekron that I could come up with.
Sitting on the ground, use a good right hand crimp and a good left hand side pull. Bump left hand up to a good pinch and make your way to the slopey lip. The difficulty now is working left to put yourself into position to top out Gates of Ekron (or Giant Slayer!!). Lots of holds to do this but getting a sequence that works for you is the tricky part.
This start feels like it adds a point to the normal start to either GOE or Giant Slayer, but maybe not..
