Both variations climbs a first section of ~8B up to the lip. Here Dave's original problem goes straight up via a heinous ~8A+ mantle, while Paul, who got his beta from Micky Page who did it recently, continues left along the lip, adding 7 moves. This section is also ~8A+, making both variations equally difficult, 8C
