Mike505 1 Jan Lead RP Start as you mean to go on :) Botched the flash so tried the moves, dropped the 2nd lead attempt due to a poor foot swap. Finally got it 3rd go as the light was fading. I've never tried anything harder than 7a, so was right chuffed with this one!

George_Surf 14 Jun, 2019 Lead RP Fell off the o/s coming up to the 2nd roof (from the right, desperate for the short, did the moves but barndoored off). Got it next go, steady, lots of thin rockovers. Felt 7b to me, and I’d expect it to be easier for the tall. Some tech beta if you’re short, it also weaves around a lot. Found it easier to go low and left at 3rd bolt, moving up to the 5th bolt is long (move right), then stay low and go way left to hidden jug, big rockover (bolt), then easier thin climbing to the top. Great climbing, hard on the skin. It’s a slab, lots of hands off, no ultra moves, how can it be 7b+?

ksjs 1 Aug, 2009 Lead dnf nails! got on this thinking 7a+ and it really isnt. 7b+ minimum (you cant give it any less based on other slate grades). very good but very technical. lowered off at last bolt - had had enough by this stage, couldnt do the traverse left and gave up on final moves to belay. hopefully the aid, falls and exasperation will not be needed next time...
