Flash ascent by:
Classic!
Led both pitches, flashing the second pitch direction variation (had led standard route a year ago). Hard to say if the std 2nd pitch or the direct variation is harder and/or more fun. Both are great. Pulling the roof is easier than it seems at first - get bomber gear, ringlock, stem, and get to the jugs. Felt easier than Modern Times.

Second ascent by:
Felt harder than a 9 today
This is a challenging finish for a shorty. Hard to work the feet to get in position to grab the jug.

figured out the move
Did the climb as a single pitch, bottom have was soaking wet, made for some interesting climbing. I finally figured out how to move up the crack on the direct exit. Jam both hands and find the huge jug out right. All good.

good fun
Really liked the first pitch. Second pitch was too short, but lots of fun.

Holy cow...lots of jamming
I seconded and had to clean a nut out of the jam. Lots and lots of fun. I need to do it again, although I was clean, it seemed like an awful lot of work. Need to work my jam technique.
