LEFT hand in the slot at the back of the pod. Feet high then reach right through for the big flatty with your RIGHT hand ;-)

Thanks Enty! I thought I'd try to lanky yard it like I usually do, alas you'd have to be seven foot.

Did that gear at waist height hold ok? ive always placed wires out right as i thought it looked a bit brittle.

It must be 30 years since I did it... but it looks as though you came tantalisingly close. Love the ropes crossed - always the sign of a memorable outing!

Gear held ok at the base of the pod JoeL but it looked a bit suspect (passive sideways 3.5 cam at base of pod and 0 friend in thin crack under it) Didn't have time to faff with wires! I was gutted to blow it Mick, left foot slipped. You're right about it being a memorable outing, what a route!
