wanted to lead it as it is my namesake, but out psyced myself. watched someone lead it as a layback extreamly gracefully and asked to second. couldnt get established in the layback and groveled my way up the offwidth instead. now that i know the break takes a cam i shall have to lead it next time.
Webster - 2nd - 08/Sep/12

much more enjoyable than it looks. Offwidthed to the horizontal break, placed some gear then laybacked the rest. Quality.

Really fancied this if I could place gear in the break, I could, at a stretch so I went on, laybacking was great and it's very very grippy. Loved it!

with sling shot traverse start. Didn't read the guide properly and thought sling shot was just david with the traverse start so i missed out the hand traverse in the break. Still a good climb though, will go back and tick sling shot.

Seduced by technology...after my forlorn efforts earlier today on Embankment 3 & Bond St we should have just bumbled around on VD/S/easy VS. However, I had been carrying around 3 mega cams (courtesy of Shad) alll day. As both MN & I had done before (Mike as solo in 1976!) and with a Camalot 6 for additional protection what could go wrong? The C6 protected the moves over the initial bulge but it took a while to get off the ground! Eventally, I threaded the chockstone & moved the C6 above it to protect the upper layback. What a torrid time I had. Eventually topped out, totally wasted. Placed C 0.75 (I think)in the next break and a C2 to protect the finishing moves. Off to the Millstone for some R&R!!!

ACE, planed to put some gear in in the mid way break but just lay-backed for glory and it was so much better for it, just over too soon, the best lay-backing I've done in a while!!!!!

Turned out to be harder than expected to place gear in the break at 3/4 height so I just kept going - felt a bit bold. Didnt feel soft HVS. The crux is getting established in the layback by the chockstone, whch I thought was worth 5a - maybe I got it wrong.
