Kubrick Crack - 18, Big top, Blackheath

Like ultimate fighting with a rock, an offwidth challenge with an inspired line that tests the mind and body. When you see a line like the Kubrick crack it's hard to know what to expect or to anticipate any moves. But once you are shoulder jamming and working your body into the wall it all starts to come together in a beautiful way you could never imagine.
