Yup, growing them at the moment ;-)

Do you come in from the right slightly, as the direct is harder isnt it?

I love slabs :-)

Anyway, cant be much harder then Science Friction  :roll:

you don't want to be growing your nails adam!  You want them short but mega tough.  I was with a friend who was on it, got up to the last 2 moves but just couldn't manage it.  Even pulling on from that undercut isn't easy, and it really helps if you're flexible!
