third "session" got the top out using a toe in anchor method followed be a western roll over the top. Love the bottom moves, maybe thats because I had so many goes at them. Top is frustrating!

very close. the bottom bit through to the slap into the dish was pretty straight forward. eventually managed top out using the anchor for my left foot but was too tired to link it today. maybe next time!

top was all icy but got to the side pull over top on flash. Had some more link goes after to try and top out, probably was possible today, but woulda been hard

Good beta provided by webbo. Had to fight on top out. Other good tick of day was V8 eliminate on 'small roof'. Back hurting from awquard mantling.
