Grade: V11
Area: Northwest Branch

Opened by: Philip London
Repeats: Matt Bosley

Beta: This is a low start into Crimps (V9). Start sitting down with your left hand on a low sidepull and your rigt hand on a gaston edge. Make three hard moves into the start of Crimps and then finish up on it. The crux of this boulder may very well be avoiding the slab on your right.

"Fingers of steel are required for this crimpy nightmare. Props Phil on the ascent!" - Gabor

"Not the best line, but the moves are all fun and fairly sustained. The stand start is a pretty classic V9" - Philip
