3m. Eliminate direct start to Twisting in the Wind, joining it at the handjam pod. Everything is in for hands and feet on the start, except for anything right of the crack and the narrow bits of the crack itself. Standard TiTW beta resumes once the handjam pod is gained.

βeta: Great problem, such fun climbing. Used all the tricks in the book and it still felt solid 7C+ to me, as hard as comparable style problems at 7C+ like The Matador and The Section. Note that I climbed it compression style staying on the bulge feature; have seen some people going out further right, matching the undercut, which is quite a way from what Jon did on the FA and doesn't look like cricket to me. It's certainly not as good that way either! Hard to specify with these things though.
