Business boulder low-grade queries
July 24, 2010, 06:03:05 pm
Hi folks, couple of geeky queries re some of the easier probs on the Business boulder at the Plantation.
Firstly, on Jerry's Finish (prob 5 in the new Stanage guide) which holds do you start from, the lower rail or the bigger hold at the bottom of the big sidepull you can get your finger tips in the back of?
Secondly, on Slot sitdown (prob 2) can you use the shallow polished pocket up and left of the slot or do you have to crank straight from the slot to the blind flake without intermediate?

Jerry's Finsh, as per the guide description and the arrow on the diagram starting at the bottom of the big sidepull

going from two angled slopers pressing out to the top
This does seem to be one of those problems that some people find ok while others struggle on so it may feel like a gimme for your V5, in that case do the lower start which is nice too.
Slot Sitdown, no idea really but shirley everything in reach is in unless otherwise stated.

Yeah, Jerry's felt a gimme at the grade, did the low start too. Ta for the info.
Not climbed on that boulder before, got my ass spanked by the other easy probs (Business Launch etc.), ah well.
