Sole Power, Jerry Moffatt E5 6c, basically the direct arete of Chequer's Buttress at Froggatt, so named because of Jerry's new footwear (not Mad Rocks) worn on the ascent. Not sure what it gets as a highball instead of a route.

I could do if I remembered but it was a year ago I did it. At any rate that sequence wouldn't including cheating use of the arete of the crack...

Top quality problem BTW.

Its a good V5. And its the warm up!. Everything else is V8-V13. Its a pretty cool place tho.Super hard sandstone and the actual crag is about 50-60ft high but it overhangs so much you can still climb in the pouring rain and it never seeps.  :D

Dragged myself to Frodsham at the weekend, can anything beat Hoop-La buttress :?:  :!:

Hadn't been in about a year and can't figure out why! Going back on Sunday :clap:

May have some photo's to put up as I don't think there are any of Frodsham in the gallery at present.....
