Accidentally led this thinking it was Little Brown Jug. Nice moves but not HVS. P1 only then onto Doorpost.

Seconded the variation start to reduce the chance of swinging. Lead pitch three.
dprctr - AltLd O/S - 01/Apr/13 with Martin Oldham, Robert Dufton

Soft. In situ nut at present on the direct start - more faff than it was worth to remove it. Lead the top pitch today and didn't miss the peg, though I do recall spending 20 mins clipped to it before rescue on an ill advised solo - I thought I was on Ledge climb at the time. Doh!
Kafoozalem - AltLd - 11/Nov/12 with Rik Meek, Brian Hannon

jjridley - AltLd - 23/Oct/12

Apparently I did the Hard start...well who would have thought it. Soft touch at HVS, two good runners above your head as you make the move. The old guide book says 4b, but it ain't that either. VS 5a for the variant.
Jelly Mould Surfer - Lead O/S - 29/Sep/12

Led P1
spragglerocks - AltLd O/S - 26/Aug/12 with Matt Box

Top pitch is great fun. HVS grade for P1 variation is soft.

Rhys Jones - AltLd - 29/Sep/10

Led second pitch. Direct start is quite tough but well protected. Gareth took a big fall off the last move of the final pitch ending up upside down. Shocked but unscathed!
andybenham - AltLd O/S - 25/Sep/10 with Gareth Hayfield

Led 1st pitch, not too bad. Then fell right at the top about 20ft head first. wimped out and walked off along the ramp to the left. Why did I jam??
