New problem at the strip

Bev, Stefan and I hit the tomo yesterday for an evening sesh after work. I was hoping to tick some numbers after sunday's 'close but no cigar' attempts (it was wet...well I thought it was a good excuse!). After a quick warm up at the totem area, we headed into the bush for a crack at the project on the far end of the bellow alchemy wall.
After some ok attempts and extender pole action (ie, stefan on our shoulders), the sequence unlocked and I got through the crux, and casually topped out the high slab above a tomo (emphasis on the casual!). Giving Nightfall V8 (maybe V7, not too sure). A few more goes were had by Bev and Stefan under headlamp, but no 2nd or 3rd ascents.

Good send James. Is it quality?
I just remember it ripping my whole body apart. I even had physio on my thigh after those attempts!

You should be out ticking off a few more projects with that new finger strength eh. Go hard!
