Didn't think my body could get into that position, turns out it can. Found it tough...

Tithe Technique - TR O/S - 15/Oct/11 with Steve Fletcher, Angela Paul, Charley Fell

Can't believe I got up this one! HVS...maybe if you have long legs and arms but a sh*t load harder if you're only 5'6"....thought my hips were about to dislocate...and gear wouldn't have been an option if I'd been leading! Awesome lead by Charley.

scary first move (with no mat) but easy after that. Didn't use gear.
Daniel Heath - Lead RP - 12/Apr/10

placed loads on micro nuts in the crack but not sure if they were worth placing as i'd have probably hit the floor anyway if i'd fallen.
