Perfect dry conditions allowed Si Panton to make the obvious link from the Les Bos/Cypriot start into the newly established Last Orders.
This yields a great connection with sustained burly undercutting (as per Les Bos) leading into the original crux. Essentially, 5 moves into the stand up line.
Its a superb link and completely logical. I knew I had better get it done quickly before anybody else noticed. I went over on Friday afternoon for a look, but out on the headland it was completely still, and consequently the wall was damp. Luckily on Saturday there was a nice breeze and everything was dry again. As for the grade, V8/7b seems about right. Commented Si after his ascent.
