I'm a small climber (4'10) and am currently climbing at v6/7 indoors. I have recently been getting into outdoor bouldering but struggling to find any short climbs at v6/7 grade. I can do some of the climbing but there normally is a move that just shuts me down. Does anyone have any recommendations for climbs that are good for short people? 

Thanks !

Check out the Instagram account "girlsongrit". They film problems and list the climbers height, could be a source of recommendations

Peak Limestone because there are always loads of extra foot and handholds, in contrast gritstone is reachy by nature of the climbing between the natural breaks in the rock.

Yeah I love lime but since grit season is coming was looking mainly for grit recommendations. 

Any lime recommendations are welcome though!

Would love to.know if anyone has any specific climbs they could recommend!

Some grit traverses are worth checking out - Green traverse at Stanage is a V6 worth having a go at. I know it has been climbed by at least one talented sub 5 foot climber
