What an incredible looking pitch. It's actually nice to see trad grades put on these big lines because it helps get through to the mind a little better just what they entail. 30 pitch E8! That's a proper day(s) out. 

Love how Babsi just bobs around crushing every style. I find it incredibly impressive.
