βeta: There are various videos of 'wishbone' on here with some confusion as to what's in or not. I don't think this is the climbers fault as previous descriptions have been vague. To clarify, I think that the video of Ash WH put up by Remus is Wishbone Left 7A with the correct eliminate rules. In the other two videos the climbers use the holds over the lip which are not in for Wishbone Left. Wishbone 7B, which there currently aren't any videos of, starts in the same place but goes rightwards under the roof to a top out on the other side. This, I think, has lost a hold in the roof and may be (much) harder now.

βeta: It would be more logical if 'WIshbone Left' was Wishbone, but using the crimp rail from First Roof Middle and coming out to the lip early on slopers and finishing inbetween Wishbone and First Roof Middle. Most people do this thinking its WIshbone and suggest ~7A for it
