This thread reminded me of when Rog the pom and I did this route a few years ago. We'd rocked up at the base to find some old farts starting up it. Us young guns didn't really want to spend the day stuck behind a slower party so we waited around to see how fast they were. Seeing them start up the second pitch we considered finding another route - they took a little while to work it out. We started up anyway as the route looked amazing from the ground. By the time we worked out the start to the second pitch (and probly took longer than the old farts), they were almost finished the route as they moved really quick. We met them later on in the decent and had a bit of a chat. Turns out one of them was US legend Jim Donnini - worked it out after seeing him in the parallelojams movie.

A great route, I think worth 3 stars.
