Electro Gecko?
If you are looking at Yardarm this problem will be at you 7 o'clock. Stand start with hands high on improbable slopers and continue for three or four moves with levitation like skills. Cool line with cool features that aren't usable. Mulligan sent this "rig" last summer on a clammy 80 degree night, the humidity felt like it was hovering around 75 percent which is ridiculous considering there are no holds on the meat of the climb. Like any other night at Josh we were hovering in a gray zone of what is right and wrong, either way the fuzz rolled in but luckily I had hid MY "sack" just out of sight and on following nights we weren't as lucky (go to comments on Master Cylinder).He says V7, I say if it's V7 I can't climb V7. Sorry the photos are so bad, I'm way to lazy.

I was looking at this today...It didn't look like it would go but I guess I'm wrong! Oh right next to it on the left...there's a typical JTree V0 slabby climb on edges (the more vertical face). I'm referring to the Blockhead Boulder. Just at the end of the tunnel opposite Nitwit, there looks to be a nice little sit start into that slabby vertical climb, though somewhat squaty. Any info on this one? It had chalk on it already so I figure someone had to have seen the same line and linked it up?

Oh it goes. Quite improbable, but it goes. On Mulligan's 2nd ascent (in daylight), I remember Aron trying it and shaking his head at Mulligan as he ran laps on it. Ridiculous.
