Description Suggest change

I am posting this, because I'd like to learn more about the FAist and if it might happen to have a name!

Sit start begins with a solid, four-pad, left hand sloper and a thin, pinchable flake for your right hand. Two moderate, leftward, left hand bumps to slopey sidepulls will set you up for the crux: a final right hand, compression sloper, and a long, left hand throw to a diagonal jug/fatty, neutral edge.

The heelhook helps early; a slight counterclockwise spin on the rockover helps tremendously at the finish.

Precise hand placements and thumb catches make the problem.

Location Suggest change

Sit start begins on the northeast corner of the bloc. If you are standing and facing the leftmost edge of the north face downclimb, take a few more steps clockwise, and you're there.

Protection Suggest change

A pad.
