Excellent. From a low sit start in the cave, get creative and work your way out to the lip of the cave without using the sloping shelf on the left (part of On a Prayer) or any holds below it. Avoiding the pockets on the left above the cave lip make a hard move with your left hand to the first right hand
pocket on Knuckle Duster. This is the original method: slightly eliminate but a satisfying move.

Another, slightly easier, method uses the first left hand pocket of Knuckle Duster as an intermediate: maybe still f7A+, maybe f7A.
