What felt like my first proper day after a horrendous hangover the day before started with a mission of a walk to the first spot. The famed spot from videos past was a pleasant surprise to all in the group and both Grif and Matt got straight to work. Although they migrated up to the more impressive kink later on I really liked this angle and shot of Grif Royaling the rail.
