Spotted this on vimeo. I haven't heard of it being done before (others might know better?) but it looks fun.

Leap from the boulder to a shallow left hand sloper on top of the bulge and a small right hand crimp. From this build right foot up into a pocket and face a tenuous rock over into top slopers. 1m left of Scratch Scoop.

Me and my friend got what we think to be the F/A on this in the video and we have looked on ukc and Peak District Bouldering and found no record of the line, its a super fun problem id recommend anyone to give it a crack :) (p.s. the gurns where from Ben)

Isn't it just a jump start to Scratch Scoop? It does look fun though

no scratch scoop starts further right but then moves left at the top towards this line but the top it still slightly right at the finish?

I did the finish the same way as this, not sure if that's normal though

The finish of scratch scoop steps across to the right crimp used in this problem with your left hand  then palms of with right  to get positioned stood up then step up with a foot in the other pocket to finish? :)
