OFMT has lost a large football size block off the top of the large flake. I think the bit some people used to place a wire in. Some buy placed it yesterday, tugged in wire and off came the block.Same guys on it again today and they are saying its still a little loose around the area it came off. So take care when on it.

Wont affect grade as its all over by then, and you can still get a shake after the crux on the flake jug.

Is it necessary to place a wire? (i'm completely unaware where exactly the bolts are on this route)... will someone clarify?

Edit = I can see Dan already has

When i did it i just had about 5 draws off of the next bolt. It is very runout, and think it was bolted for placing a wire.

not done OOMT but done OOMB and its run out but its about English 4c/5a.......certainly ain't gonna fall off having done the crux and rested on the flake....

OFMT?  Out Fof My Tree?

The wire is quite often placed cos of the runout as far as i know. I believe young james placed a wire when he did it from what i remember reading on here.

You never really needed the wire, it looks run out but really it's only about 5 moves between clipping and it's slabby climbing on buckets, or at least it used to be.

I never placed the wire. Look at me - I'm a big cahoned run out god. I havent got any wires though, so that may have an influence on my decision, I dont know, I will have to ask the question.
