In reply to Diggler: I stopped 5 feet off the floor, upside-down. was very exciting .

Does anyone know where the crux supposed to be? I'm pretty sure I fell off after it. I fell rocking up onto the slab with my foot in the pocket.

Yeah, that sounds like after the crux. Friend is bomber though, as you've illustrated.

I belayed a mate and he took several. Each time a friend ripped but another stayed in i seem to remember but this may be before flexis!

A guy called Charlie....I think he's a friend of some guy called Rob.

Theres bomber cams in the break before beginning the crux sequence. The big cam is no longer much good and usually rips - its then down to alert belaying + how far into the pocket sequence youve got horribly committed = no deckout.

Theres a vid of a lass taking the fall on youtube somewhere.

ps - I backed off btw!

Nice one! Are you trying to put me off to get you out of seconding it?

In reply to Diggler:

No way dude - quite looking forward to being your belay bitch on this one. Should be entertaining, although I think it's time I started heckling you when your running it out.

Was looking at curbar in the guide last night, you fancy this soon or do I have chance to build up some arm strength first?!!!

Interestingly it was allegedlly the one route/move Ron backed off on the day he soloed his 100 Extremes!
