- literally the last point it's feasible to fall off the fucker
couldn't do Sitting In Oxford or Striker LH either
I'd put Striker LH down to height so there goes that excuse, thanks a lot Chris

Many moons ago I had the top but was trying to top out straight up above the block rather than moving slightly left, got pumped (and scared) and dropped off. Not technically a fall (which would have been messy) I know but still a fail from the jaws of victory. It would have been my first 7a but Green Traverse took the honour instead and apart from a few at Longridge (spot the theme?), it remained my only one for ages and it was well over 10 years before I eventually returned to complete it being aghast at the mistake I'd made upon topping outGood Luck next time out.

I tried both of these when I thought I was going well and wasn't really close on either.I think they're both pretty knacky one move problems as opinion on the difficulty seems to vary massively.
S: started a session but didn't feel good. Should have followed Shark's example and kept going
PM Weighted deadhangs. Overcooked it attempting 42.5kgs and was burnt after first hang.
Sat. eatswood with DD. Great conditions. 4 redpoints reaching finger rail at end and on last go matching it but unable to make last (5b) pop . Got home buzzzing and started doing front levers, pistols and dips in the hall until my son accused me of being mainic. Had a bath and fell asleep in it.
Have you tried a left heel on the hurricane starting holds cheque? Don't know how tall you are but I can leave that in with my Right hand on the sloper (Although I have been told I'm lanky...) Have seen some smaller people do it this way too without much of a cut loose?
BTW I wouldn't recommend doing max hangs on consecutive days
For fingerboarding back when Dave Macleod only had a strip of wood above his door he posted a routine similar to that. 4 grip types for 4 reps each, 5-8 sec hangs with 1-2 min rest between reps.
I tried the Andy E recommended dual hand aręte power hump method – nope.
