Rockfax Description
Scuttle up the thin leaning crack by a tottering layback, especially where the side-wall disappears. Easier for the short-legged but always manages to feel a real struggle. © Rockfax

βeta: Quite reasonable for both grades and surprisingly good fun for a steep Curbar crack. Fiddle in something above the 1/3 height rest, manouvre past the missing sidewall, and enjoy some classic laybacking.

βeta: Quite a powerful E2 really, but the difficulties are very short lived. Friend 1.5 crucial. Beautiful!
