13m. This route now supersedes Smear or Die and finishes without the use of the top crack.
Start as for Andys Slab but trend leftwards up to a good hold in the centre of the slab and a small flake. Step tenuously left and up to another small flake, once stood up finish diagonally rightwards via the two shallow pockets and finishing rail, avoiding the crack of Barnacle Bill.
(Placing side runners in BB would reduce the grade, though only after the crux).
Highball!
