Crouching Tiger - V5 ***

you don't climb it the way shown on the other thread - i tried it as a dyno initially before realising you could go up to a small crack in the lip with your right, jam that, then go for the lip itself with the left. topping out was a bit scary though - mantling the lip using dodgy jams in a crack - my hands look (and feel) as though they've been dragged over three miles of sand paper (the rock is very rough and the crack was filthy = slippy jams and lots of lost skin  :cry: )

Cool - I'll catch that one later - did you sort your bandwidth problem with the newspaper site linking to you?
