βeta: Full Prow (all pitches done as one) is never 8a, more like bottom end 7c+, not much harder than Proud Whore. The bottom two pitches run together make a 7c and there is then a hands off rest wedged across the bottom of the groove before pitch 3 (which is only 7b/7b+ on it's own). | βeta? | |

βeta: It needs to be stressed how loose and dangerous the top part of pitch3 is. I saw someone doing this route and big rocks were raining down onto the parking bay. | βeta? | |
