Description
Chariots of Fire is the splitter immediately right of Sidewinder. In fact, halfway or so up the pitch it is possible to move left to a good rest on Sidewinder. The first crux, for me at least, was trying to get back into the Chariots' crack after this rest. Steep bouldery moves protected by small, sparse pro lead to another rest before the second crux: slightly overhanging, thin hands/rattly fingers. An amazing line and a proud tick for sure.
At the top, move slightly right on face holds when the crack system pinches down and gets desperate. A newish anchor with rings at the top.

Location
Locate Moon Shadow and Sidewinder. This climbs ascends the next crack to the right of Sidewinder. The classic, thin hands splitter at the top of the first pitch will be obvious from the ground.
