Wild trip, crashing sea beneath. All chalked up but greasy on the crux
morganator - Solo - 18/May/13 with Sophie Whyte
Amazing, five stars, best E1 I've ever done! Total commitment on a devious line with insane space walking positions. Viktor took the higher line on P1 after deciding that what turned out to be the lower line looked too hard. I led P2, which meant Viktor got the exciting downclimb, fortunately there was a small cam to protect it. This time I took the upper line after deciding the lower line looked too hard! A good technical 5b sequence ensued. Viktor got the wild pitch, which was interesting to second. In his words, the little downclimb to the belay was 'the whipped cream on the mashed potatoes' - a Swedish saying meaning OTT! I led the easier escape pitch. A real sea cliff experience. It rained while we were on it but it stayed dry, apart from some holds that we're damp anyway! Deafening noise from the swell hitting the rocks opposite the cliff but underneath the cliff it was sheltered from the NE wind, so at least we didn't get splashed! With Viktor on the BMC international meet. Simply brilliant. Should be E2 for the commitment and the crazy situations.

Did p2 + p3. Joe did P1 + P4. I didnt really find it that 'Wild' But certainly an interesting route... Soft for 5b but potentially committing.

Slipped on wet rock on pitch 2 and grabbed gear on even wetter pitch 3. Exciting!
BeccaSnowden - 2nd dog - 24/Jun/11 with Tom
Awesome! Was dry to start then started raining when I was on the second pitch. I stayed dry thanks to the overhangs for this and the next pitch (though the rock was soaking from seepage) then had a soaking wet slab to finish. Climbing didn't feel hard for E1 but atmosphere was awesome, especially standing on the belays watching the rain pouring down. Climbed as a four.

Some scary rock getting to the first belay. Awkward descent on pitch 2. Main pitch ok and pitch 4. Very hot.

very intimidating! Pretty scary for E1 but probably not E2. Wouldnt bother with the back rope, I used it but was more hassle than good. The runners are good enough without it. p3 is the meat of the route anyhow, Amazing route

Got as far as the start of pitch 2 and then retreated due to combination of wet holds, rising tide and rough seas. Will come back.

With Marko from Croatia on BMC international meet. Poured with rain while we were on it but none of the holds got wet! Brilliant route.

Fantastic Route. Backed off on Thursday evening after seeing the 1st belay being soaked by a wave. This time all went smoothly. Led P2/4
cornishben - AltLd O/S - 21/Jun/09 with Marc Elliot
Got soaked by a wave on the 1st 2 metres of the route.... all plain sailing after that.
chris sm - AltLd O/S - 21/Jun/09 with Pippa Froggatt
Led pitches 2 (high tide traverse with 5b splits move) and P4, mercifully easy after the first move. P3 was a bit of a struggle, altho I did get cold sat at second stance for ages. The full body jam is an unavoidable grovel as far as I could tell.
