Title: [Non-stick Vicar into Fun Traverse] [E7 6c] [Black Rocks]
Post by: Tommy on February 22, 2014, 08:54:09 pm

I'll put this up as I know Pete will never do it as he's not yet learnt how to type on a qwerty keyboard. The name is made up obviously...

As you'd imagine: climb Non-stick Vicar, up the sloper tricky rib, scary moves, into Fun Traverse with no gear then finish up Fun Traverse. I tried it after him and can confirm to some excellent moves and plenty of spice.

Nice one. Always thought that would make a good route. In fact I think I suggested it to Pete  :-\

The way I originally tried DIITD was coming in from the right along Fun Trav. It sets you up into an amazing sequence pulling on the 2-finger 'extra strong mint' pocket with your left hand, but is sooooo powerful (and still v reachy).

'Black Book John' I think as Bonjoy tipped him off.
