Rockfax Description
An awesome line on decent holds for the most part except the start (Dance Direction) which some find the technical crux. Make fingery moves to the break - originally came from the left. Pull away past a hands-off knee-bar rest to the final roof, then crank this, past the lower-off, to jugs over the lip. Make a small jump or difficult reverse move to the lower-off. © Rockfax

βeta: The finishing jug is pretty much directly above the last bolt but you have to move right to get into position to latch it. Also possible to finish up Free Monster just to the right, which shares one or two holds. | ||

βeta: Needs the bolts sorting out, given it’s popularity. As hard as the 7a+s to the left, even when done without the superfluous kneebar. | ||
