Description:

A majestic blank slab that requires as much faith as smearing technique. Don't exit rightwards if you want full points

I feel slab enlightened. The contrivance is kinda bad but it climbs well.

Wouldn’t have done this without Jake Tigers slab scramble event. Who would have thought I’d enjoy a slab climb?!

Super cool, 2nd try. Trust the feet and don't use the hands much. Probably easier for the grade but idk 🤷

Nice, 3rd or 4th try. Landing is spookier than snake pit and black slab

Fell on my last go of the day, got frustrated and stepped on a few moves in, and the top beta just clicked. Gave myself 2 more attempts and sent on the last go of the day. Felt like a wizard levitating up this one.

Ok ok ok! I'll admit it... It was kinda fun! Love the flow on the top even though it was pretty mental. Glad to have this checked off with Greg and Ivan. It's definitely tough to sucker people into climbing this thing... Last V5 in my top 100.

Followed the rules and went straight up, even though that's hilariously contrived. I guess there used to be a log in the way? An uncommon style, I enjoyed being humbled.

Sailing off the near top is a bit zesty, but it is well worth climbing this exercise in footwork.
