This is a tough 5.8, especially in the beginning (the crux). The combination of fist jamming and layback moves with almost no footholds for 15-20 feet left me out of breath for the roof pull that followed. Fortunately, the roof has lots of good holds and the rest of the climb is not that hard. It was real satisfying to make it to the top of this climb, even if it was on my second try.
