Energetic leg jamming with assistance from pebbles. Good to get it done 20 years after spotting the line, but somewhat of an anticlimax
Siderunner - Lead O/S - 04/May/13 with Yorkshire Sam
Got this one clean onsight on my first day of trad since Oct last year - well chuffed !!! What a struggle though and made the mistake of racking all the gear I needed on my left, doh!
Thought that the top bulge was gonna be a path and was so knackered I came very close to falling off.
First Grit HVS onsight - get in !!!!!!
PS I got a Camalot 4 well and truly stuck it the bottom groove :-(

Blimey, the first section climbing the crack is a bit grouchy (thanks Nic!). An easy finish if you can feel your fingers or have any skin left on knees and elbows. Tom opted for facing the crack and jamming, I went for laying against the main wall with the crack on my left. Either way it way we both made some progress up and then a small slip down till we got to the top.

havnt enjoyed a route so much for ages.
have done this on second several years ago and possibly once before that I think. Really chuffed to have led it.
had no big gear for belay at top so used sling and belayed from very top to protect rope - turned out to be a mistake as led to bad rope drag lower down as ropes got pulled into cracks

reminiscent of : trident (wimberry), peapod (curbar), tower chimney ( stanage). It's the easiest of this lot in my opinion. Gerd managed to bridge it all the way without once touching the crack, admittedly coming up second.
wahniel - Lead O/S - 11/Apr/09 with Gerd Heinz Bentheim
Thrutching start after initial layback moves. Forgot to rack all the gear on the left for the fist half :o-) so made it more tricky than I should have. Great rest on ledge at half-time. Second half still technical and strenuous - the finger jams/layways were a bit sloppy, but it's really well protected.
Superb!

Was a bit green so fell off after a few meters....got back up it soon after. Brilliant climb easily worth 3 stars....straightforward yet strenuous laybacking all the way...not sure why you would bridge it.
No need to jam (except the odd foot torque) if you can handle the offwidth nature of it. should be on every aspiring uk crack meister's tick list as it is a fairly unique line.
