The obvious Skinhead to Midget link-up, with one new bolt. JP says the best thing about it is the name so it gets a mention for honesty.

Starts at far left of wall, scramble up blocks to start at slightly overhanging corner and follow obvious features up and left to no hands rest on ledge. Step right and use crack for a few moves, then left on to bottom of the diagonal crack which is followed with increasing difficulty.
