Description Suggest change

This is an easier hybrid of a couple of the posted boulder problems here. Begin with a standing start to Foops Simulator. Hand traverse up to the pointed block and layback over the lip (instead of continuing left on Foops Simulator).

This is the first way I was able to do this great overhang problem, and it probably remains the best known boulder problem at Chickies. It's one of my favorites from anywhere in the country where I've bouldered.

Incidentally I think that Foops Simulator with a standing start would also be a V2, the crux being the moves left from the pointed block.  A great variation on this is to do it in the opposite direction: start on the Loose Ends overhang and traverse right to the pointed block and turn the lip.  I think that this is also V2.
