The original line up this bit of wall but not as good as its left-hand neighbour. The small corner leads easily to the ledge and bulge (this section needs wires). Step left and pull over for a rapid finish. © ROCKFAX

Expected to fall again especially as I got boxed on Axle Attack! Gave it everything and luckily the runouts get easier the higher you get. Why can't I onsight E4 at the moment!?!? Think today will help me click into 'go for it' mode on the onsights of E4s once you know the gear is good just go for it.
