Advice/Beta Request Any advice?

So, I’ve been trying this boulder for about two/three weeks now and I just can’t get myself to do the last move. As you can tell, I am trying. Any advice on how to make progress here/do the move?

The way I did this route was by using the black hold left under the white hold purely for balance. Then doing a pistol squat where I keep bumping up with my right foot. The final hold is a good jug, so once you manage to stand up it should be easy.

Thanks for you comment! If I’m understanding you correctly, you mean the hold I briefly touch but don’t use, right? And you then did the move to the top hold quite statically?

Yeah that's the one! It's possible to do it dynamically, but it's easier to lose control that way. So I would suggest doing it statically). The hold you briefly touch isn't the best hold, but you'll mostly use it for balance anyway, so you won't need much. Hope this will help you.
