βeta: Yes, a one move wonder so no stars, I found it quite a hard move (though I'm fairly short), but with a good cam just below it, HVS 5b seems about right

βeta: as a matter of interest, Bendomium, are you tall or short? I led this route and thought the move reasonably low end 5a. I'm 5'6". My buddy, following, had a nightmare on that same move. He's 6'3".

βeta: Did this today as my first "HVS", and am interested to see its now E1 in BMC - agree this seems a bit silly. A one move wonder, but brilliant move. A star at least just for that.

βeta: I agree with Nick. Interesting that this route has been upgraded to E1 in the new Stanage Guide.

βeta: The move through the scoop is tricky, but the rest of the route is very easy, and not very interesting, unfortunately. Don't feel it deserves a star. Possibly VS 5b.
