Just to the right of No Excuse for Porn Hair. Start in compression with RH on smooth right arete and LH on left arete. Climb straight up, avoiding the dab at the big crux move, to the peak of the boulder to top out

    Found on the Ho on 4th Street boulder and climbs out of the same pit as No Excuse for Porn Hair, this incredible looking line sits in a tight space making the crux move, unfortunately, quite dabby. It is probably the reason why it has deterred others from trying it, or it could be because of the less than ideal landing zone. If it wasn’t for those reasons it’d likely be a five star boulder and would already have a first ascentionist. At first I was quite sketched out by the landing. Having that rock in your back during a fall at the big crux move results in a bonking. Also falling from the top would be potentially catastrophic if you fell off the second landing but because of the raised landing you can try all the moves in a close to ground feeling. Luckily the topout is quite easy. Similar to the game: ‘Operation’ you have to be careful, “don’t touch the sides!” Or you’ll set off the (dab) buzzer and lose the game.
