Title: jerrys traverse - cratcliffe
Post by: bondosan on March 22, 2004, 01:19:51 pm

can anyone confirm the finish of this for me. i was always under the impression it went reet to the end, past the jugs to the poorer holds and then up. i was having a chat to someone about it and they reckoned it went up from the jugs.
cheers

Few different versions, but for the full tick, you traverse to the end. With the hardest move being right at the end

The B8 finishes up from the jugs. Dunno if the full one is the same grade.

i always thought it went right to the end, and the last move was perhaps the hardest, especially after you've done all the others before!  I heard the grade was v8+, but whatever grade it is, i found it strangely difficult until i did it.

the reason peeps say it goes strait up from jugs is cos jerry does it that way in the 'real thing'.....the o.g defo goes onto the small seams then mantel come rockover at end. Interesting move cos you can get right hand in far end of jug and then swing dyno for jug on end of trav but makes getting foot up scary

I agree, it's pretty foul - I like this one too:
