Description

This variation of

Polyester Leisure Suit

starts 2-3m to the right of

PLS

and climbs interesting features that trend right through the overhang.

Start with a knuckle jam in the "fin" for a few body lengths of gymnastic trad protected climbing to the small fir tree where it intersects with

PLS

. This is much more interesting climbing than

PLS

, trad protected (tricky to place on lead?) at about the same grade.

Location

Few meters right of

PLS

where a fin sticks out of the bottom of the same roof. Rappel off the tree at the top of

PLS

.

Protection

The crux took a #1 C3, #0 C3, and medium stopper in the v-slot before the sloper finish.
