From a standing start climb the left side of the nose, avoiding the good flat hold on the arete but using the flat hold just left of it. Perhaps using a low left undercut to help you get started and a high mono as an intermediate to reach the triangular pocket, then move immediately left into the Paradise sidepull and huge sloper, then top out. Much better than all that standing on folded mats malarkey for Paradise.
Rather than moving left, a variation finishes up the narrow space between the huge sloper of Paradise and good holds on The Nose without using either, at the same grade: FA R Bath.
