Description
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.
