... compared to the S section to the summit. Going S to N, the downclimbs were tedious and detracted from the pure joy of the climbing from the S to the summit.
The rock quality is also worse, possibly due to less traffic (a knob broke off at some point and sent me flying into a soft, thankfully, lead fall).
The wave looks and is spectacular, but the actual climbing is pretty easy. There is also a literal knife edge section at some point, no more than a few inches wide...

Cool route
Great day out (N to S). Simul climbed in my approach shoes. Amazing views, the wave is great, so is the knife edge later in the ridge.
