Ping Pong Pocket Rib, Bamford

Straight up left side of rib?  Start right and use the sloping sidepull on the right of the rib?  Go when it's Baltic and hold the rib? Be really tall and go straight to the pocket?

Big move I think, intermediates are bogus.

We figured a sequence using a flaky foothold on the left which was deffo easier than 7a+. Better but harder going more direct I think.

Far end of Bamford. Fifty metres beyond the Salmon slab.

Think I used something for right hand right of the arete, feet high then big move to a pocket high up, does that sound plausible?

Plausible but hard. There is a small, rounded flake right of the arete but I'll need more cold to hold it. A mid-winter visit to be scheduled.
