βeta: Oops. That didn't work then! What I was trying to say was that you should be commenting on Ocean Rock 6c+, not this route.

βeta: i thought it was very good & with excellent rock. though deceptively hard compared to go with the flow (when i looked across at it from that route i thought it looked about the same grade). the crux reachy moves fairly low down foxed me at first, after that it was a case of 'racing' for the top. 6c+ is about as hard as i can climb so it must be about right!

βeta: No - it's a newie called "Ocean Rock", 6c+. Aeroforce is quite a long way to the right, with a very different approach. What did you think of it?

βeta: is this the route directly to the right of Go with the Flow? i.e. starting on the same ledge but a few feet further to the right? if so, is it really 7b???
