The Hesitator, the line on the rock

Climb the slab to the scoop, then commit to the lip. This used to be a true head game classic (yours truly hesitated for several minutes) as the move to the lip was a dyno/smear friction foot/generally quite scary. Unfortunately for the lore, but fortunately for some ankles, the rock broke and the top is now not so hesitation-inducing
