Ben Slack climbed the obvious sitting start to the highball line Here Comes the Sun on Saturday. A fingery pull on and lurch/stab into a diagonal break, followed by a quick snatch into a better break leads into the easier, but rather bold finish of the original stand up line.

There were several teams at the crag on the day and Joe Sterling climbed the obvious highball line on the right edge of the roof of the recently climbed Uncle and Opus Campus (i.e. just left of The Incredible Shaking Man. This went at V6/7A and may have been climbed before.
