This time, monkey swing forward, then around to the right across the wooden slats you just raised.
Continue all the way around the central column...
...to the far side of the room.
When you come to the end of the solid, brown-and-gold bars, turn right...
...and continue monkey swinging toward the central structure until Lara is touching the climbable wall. Briefly release Action and then re-press it to grab onto the wall.
Climb down, past the grate on the right, to the bottom.
The next jump is a little tricky. To get the positioning right, climb all the way down, so Lara is hanging by her hands from the lowest possible rung and won't climb down any farther. Then lightly press the Up button one tap at a time...
...just until her feet come up onto the ladder.
Now press Jump to backflip into the alcove behind her.
NOTE: If you're using an analog controller with the PlayStation game and you're having trouble with the sequence described above, try using the left Analog Stick instead of the D-pad to climb the ladder. This should give you greater control. Climb all the way down. Then press lightly on the stick, so Lara climbs up one rung at a time. Then when her feet come up onto the lowest rung, take the backflip.
