Lead P2 and P4. P4 seemed pretty stiff.
Jonathan Hall - AltLd - 27/Apr/13 with Rob Middleton
Awesome run out P1, but nice and easy for 5a. P4 is horrific, utter sandbag at 4c. Started at 7(pm) and down by 10. Maybe being able to see would have helped for the last pitch! Take 60m ropes if you want an easy descent.
ianstevens - AltLd O/S - 20/Apr/13 with Sam Wainwright
Late start, luckily the last pitch requires no technique, so you don't need light!

Led 1st & 3rd pitches. Probably left it too long before trying this route, felt too easy. Crux of the first pitch felt harder & more run out thatn crux of the 3rd. It was so windy & I was so cold on this route I bought a smock straight afterwards for the rest of the trip that I then didn't get to use. Chris did an excellent job of leading the 4th pitch.
leon - Lead O/S - 19/Jun/11 with Chris Munton
Lead all 4 pitches. Really not a 3 star classic. The 'bold' slab really isn't that bold and it feels like you bail in to the crack at the end of the 3rd pitch after only a few good moves? I did like the contrast of the final pitch!
catblack - Lead O/S - 14/Jun/11 with Andy Barker
Led P1 and P3 clean. Feel i didnt do this route justice by falling off the p4 seconding. And I fear i went off to the right too soon on P3 missing out the infamous mantle. Will definitely come back to do it properly

Amazing route. I led pitches 2 and 4. Varied! Had a Cliffhanger moment on pitch 4, dangling from one arm like Stallone as my foot skidded off some green rock, but managed not to let go! The gear is pretty sparse until pitch 4.

Great climb with Mike Hillman. I didnt think the groove is as hard as the long pitch on West Rib. Struggled on the top pitch. Mike climbed it and "rescued me".
