Description:

An improbable pure power problem on the Guiness Boulder facing the main parking lot. Using a poor pistol-grip pinch for the left hand (low and to the left under the lip of the boulder), and a small pinch-crimp for the right 3 feet under the lip, hoist your body off the ground and fire for the good incut. Control your swing and campus some more moves until you can mantle. (F.A. Colin Rickert, '02)**

3 out of 5 stars FA

A real screamer. After the first ascent I was only able to repeat this problem two more times. I dont seem to be able to do it any more. Rating was slightly sandbagged (by me). Apparently a foothold has broken so expect the grade to be harder (V8/9-ish)
