Slightly :off: but what's the difference between Early Doors and Jihad?

I thought Early Doors and GW were both sit starts on the flake at the bottom of the offwidth? :shrug:

they are. Jihad is an eliminate that starts in the crack and avoids the flake for hands by handtraversing the rampline into the hurricane slopers, then lurch up and right into the early door slopers to finish.

Ahhh, that makes more sense. Was slightly confused by the 'sit start on flake' description on Bonjoy's list.

Cheers.
