Description
A Gunks classic FA'd by Paul Robinson back in the day. Aptly named, the first thing you notice when you see this thing is how totally rad it looks (and it climbs just as good), and the fall zone. While the landing has been dramatically improved over the years, a powerful toss to a sloper and a committing move to the lip add some spice factor. A spotter or two is definitely recommended to avoid tumbling into the pit or sailing too far back and missing the landing.
A sit start in the pit named Yowza was established by Bryce Viola, which goes at V11/V12. This sit start involves some footwork wizardry and tense body positions to avoid the dab.
Protection
at least 4 pads. ideally 5? and bring spotters. 2 is good. 1 if that dude is on his A game.
