Fat Albert Gang, Cabbage Patch

Description 

This beautiful line (thanks to quarrying) is a great lesson in pure arete liebacking. Core tension down low is the key, especially moving past the crux. Fun topout. A sit start adds a move, but the grade's the same.


Location 

Right off the road, same boulder as Dean Problem

Mountain Bro, don't be a jerk and delete your skewed ratings.

Not sure if it was the cold weather, but after climbing in the 40 degree weather, I sent this 2nd try.... as opposed to me trying to make a single move and my feet blow off from the super polished knobs on an "average" day.

Awesome problem!

Truly one of my favorites. It does seam a lot harder then V3 but, who cares about the rating. If I would have to rate it anything it would be classic.

At least as slick as Surfboard Arete V4. I guess it's a V3 even though this is harder for me than surfboard arete. The hardest part is the mega slick foot holds. everything else is just bomber!
