Description:

A classic problem with the best topout hold at HP. Climb up the tall face using sidepulls, then a lunge to wrap your arms around a huge ball/protrusion at the top.

Sweet problem. SDS is rather tricky, the bottom feet on the boulder are sloughing off (a la the top of Sandbox), which causes a barndoor into a tree. But I digress, first try for the top, didn't go hard enough with a deadpoint. Second try, made it a dyno, smacked the finish knob pretty hard, didn't stick. Third try to the top, somewhere in between the first and second tries and it stuck, easy top out. Big fun!
