Description Suggest change

Time to paddle back out to the line up because there is another wave coming, a Jade Wave! 

This is the full envisioned line and a really fun addition to this panel of the wall. It fits in nicely between Trilogy and Black Wave in difficulty. A bit more involved than Trilogy but less sustained than BlackWave, this route is a slightly easier variation for accessing the tidal wave headwall. 

Climb Jade to its anchor using the recommended draw beta to minimize rope drag on the BlackWave finish. From the anchor of Jade, clip one of the bolts with a long draw and continue carefully up the groove, doing your best to avoid two loose blocks up and left of the crack. A short sequence of 5.10 moves on the face above the Jade anchor will allow you to easily skirt the loose blocks. Look for the large, flat crimps that will take you out right.

Joining with the final 3 shared bolts of BlackWave, clip the first bolt in the headwall with a shoulder length sling, and surf your way up the final tidal wave headwall to a two bolt anchor with loweroff carabiners. A 60 meter rope is mandatory.

Location Suggest change

Start about 6’ left of BlackWave on the left side of the same detached block.

Protection Suggest change

12 bolts. It is recommended to extend bolt 3 if you are going to the top. It’s possible to unclip bolt 5 after you’ve clipped 6, or you can extend that one as well. Bolt 7 doesn’t need an extension, but a longer draw can help with the clip.
