Description:
This route is a gem of a climb. The 1st pitch is the business: climb an open book w/ a handcrack that widens to OW on the right and a hand crack on the left. Use every technique in the book to get up this pitch. Hand and fist jams w/ the left hand and chickenwings and armbars w/ the right arm. after tge half way point, you can lay it back the rest of the way to the top. It makes things a bit more fun! Good pro everywhere. If this pitch is enough, rap off the chockstone @ the top of the crack. If you want the full experience, the next pitch ascends another finger/handcrack-OW combo. Less painful than the 1st pitch. At the top enjoy nice views to the SW. Walkoff to the south through a short hallway between huge boulders.

One more off the ticklist
Another Vedauwoo classic. Has basically everything you could want from a Vedauwoo route, especially since the bolts were placed at the top of Master of Sport, adding a very enjoyable twenty foot 5.8 flared hands section to the end of the route.
Bring gear from tips to fists, with doubles in tight hands to big hands.

Ascent Note
Fun route, definitely wear pants and tape the ankles. It's offwidth mixed in with many other sizes and types of climbing. Master of the Sport is one to dream about doing.

i enjoyed this rather painful experience. it was probably interesting to get through the first two or three pitches and I admit, I had to keep trying. Requires long reaches and can get a bit painful.
