Trainspotting

Description

A perfect moderate for those who can't fathom the heinous crimps and drop knees of "La Femme Fatale" !! This climb is so awesome though with a real punchy start that requires explosive power ! The rest requires pure grit to stay on, groveling all the way to the Hail Mary juggy pinch. The only drawback to this boulder is that the smaller boulder to left poses quite the dab potential which can be very frustrating. In order to avoid the frustration I opted for a more compression / direct version which might be a grade harder and certainly more contrived (I do however recommend trying to stay purely on the front face because it is mega fun) . But several people have now repeated it and it seems the way that I thought would be ultra dabby works relatively well and definitely is easier but doesn't take away any of the fun !! The climb is SDS with left hand on arete and right hand on meaty pinch , go straight up !
