The roof looks much bigger from straight below, but it's more of a steeply overhanging face than a roof. You can get half way out by wedging into the wide crack.

Topos for Sooberb (red) and Sooberb Lite (blue), which is a mash-up of Sooberb and Long John Wall (or similar).
Dec. views from the rap.
The third pitch's right-facing dihedral.
Chuck casually resting with a heel hook. You can pull hard with your leg and make a long reach to the lip. I've done it this way, but this time I found it easier to work the crack and face holds just right of the crack.
The sustained, steep 5.8 corner above Sick Flake.
There are some buckets on the right wall, but it's hard to reach anything once you've committed to these.
Luke getting a bit dynamic spinning out of the wide crack. The 4.5 Camalot Luke is carrying is optional but nice for entering the slot above the lip.
Lower West Ridge.
The Sooberb pitch. There were two fixed pieces in the looming crack above to protect the move from the face into the slot.
Matt starting up P2.
CM finishing the second pitch.
