Velvet Crab
February 17, 2008, 10:14:03 am
Hi, I posted this on ukc but didn't have much reponse and it's bugging me in a way that these kind of things normally don't...

So, how do most people do this problem?

Do you use the detached block at the beginning and the RH wedged block at the top?

Do you go all the way to the final jugs before rocking out on the slab and grabbing the top?

There seems like there could a few options, but it's an ace problem whatever.

I think I just pull on and put my left foot high.  The wedged block at the top is not needed

Not all the way, probably 3/4 and then rock back onto the slab

Yeah it's well brown

i've always seen it done without using anything right of the crack at the top. And in the interest of offering a counterpoint, i think its shit.

Jus, the start does not use the block.
