Rockfax Description
The excellent narrow groove is harder than it looks; tricky to enter (peg in the groove) and desperate to leave. Eventually it spits you out with some haste up the wall to the break. There is an independent and tottery direct finish but it is a much better plan to move right into Entropy to finish. © Rockfax
