Starts matched on the low jug/pocket as I understand it, as per Heartland. It's low but the obvious starting position. Not sure it's possible to reach the crimp this way. Not done it for a few years but keep meaning to go back and look and try and finish off Heartland.
Would be bullshit if the flake was out, why?!
Because it's clearly fragile and nobody with any sense would hang off it. It does move a few mm when weighted.
It's low but the obvious starting position.
Looks like the way I'm doing it is ok enough
See, I was wrong on all counts

And let's face it if SM can reach the crimp from sitting then it's not a stretch! Pulling on matched felt contrived to me. But yes adds a hard move which isn't a bad thing I suppose.Didn't think the flake felt fragile tbh but didn't use it that much.
Only my view of course, but I thought starting matched made the problem particularly dabby/arse draggy. Maybe needs a situation like on Zaff, with a known sit start and an even lower start? Even if that changes the grade of the higher sit start, that is the way people are currently doing it.
Went today and googled this thread (knew there'd be one).Started matched in the pockets which didn't feel contrived and the moves out left are good. The dabby move is the cut loose anyway, though I did the start off a slider pad.Most the videos of this problem start left hand on the crimp and, while I can see this being logical, you can't have 7B for it that way That's the problem with videos - everyone just follows them.
