Fido Low

FA unknown
CREATED 
UPDATED 

Description

A sit start to the classic Fido. Not quite as good because of the awkward process of pulling on, but worth doing if you love Fido (like me) but want to change it up a bit. Overall, a fun way to add some drama to an established classic.

Sit start with a LH on a sharp pinch directly below the starting hold of Fido and a LH on a good crimp in the faint seam out right. Bump your right hand to the start hold of Fido. Match or cross to the intermediate and pull that awesome deadpoint. Make your way up the face via good crimps to the juggy crack. Follow the crack to the finish and topout.

Location

Straight up the middle of the 45 to Life Wall, sit start just below the start of Fido.

Protection

A few pads and an experienced spotter; it's pretty tall and the landing isn't exactly ideal.
