...I also read there are discussions about whether this route would be a 8c+...
In reply to Pino: lets not have this debate please.
 Pino 09 Mar 2010
Correct, as it would not be for us to debate it as we have not climbed it!
He's v good, regardless...

Fricking awesome but I'm not surprised. 3 attempts is awesome.

They've been filming him on this for the last 3 or 4 months (on and off - due to it being wet) so i wouldn't hold your breath too much. Hopefully i'll be proved wrong...
In reply to ali k: shame because im good at holding my breath. just heard a little rumour...

In reply to UKC News: He took three tries now and two more tries in 2008. So he redpointed the route on his fifth go
