Description 

Sit start under the tree. Many variations possible - the best two are:

(1) V4 start with hands on the starting hold and reach to the horizontal sloper above and right of the flake. Match and go to the top;

(2) V6 start on the crimpers above and right of the big starting hold; to the crimp above left; then to the horizontal or straight to the top. The key is footwork.
