Match the Banana and get your feet on some horrible weird smears and try to make your way into Compression V0. May be harder than V4.

Patina Face

Match the banana and move up and left over a bad landing. The chock stone is off.

Grab the loaf type hold and mantel up. Classic mantel.

Match the Loaf and climb the arête to the top of the boulder with tricky feet and body tension.

Climb up the ramp from the ground, using any feature.

I found this line by looking in Chris Summit's

Nor Cal Bouldering guide

, where you can find it numbered 36. and rated VB.

Left hand on the Banana and right on the arête. Compress your way to the top of the boulder.

Hand jam the chockstone with your right hand and use the arête for your left go up with a less than ideal landing. Jugs up high.

An eliminate variation starts on a small right crimp and left hand anywhere along the long crimp rail and goes at V3. A sit start is also possible in the V5-6 range, starting on the same right hand hold and a bad left hand sloper low on the boulder.
