This is in a collection of rocks up above/behind Successor State. It's Pillar clamping climbing style with a very necky feel to it. The landing is not too bad when you get your head around it and you have a spotter.
Absolutely quality climbing!
Tom Crane (Tommytwotone) also climbed the arete on the slabby side which is also nice and he did the slab to the right too.

Got a few shots of this today (not taken by me though, as I was on spotting duty!)...can verify this is a very cool problem, highball monkey-on-a-sticking with a very spicy top! I'll certainly be back for a crack.
Anyway...the line, viewed from the left hand side - doesn't really do justice to the lean though:

...and round the corner, I'm going to go with:
Fibonacci Sequence (Font 5c)
Arete of the above on the slabby RHS
Galileo (Font 6a)
Up the middle of the slab, using a pocket and some small crimps
