βeta: After the initial moves from the big jug rest at half-height, gaining the undercuts and clipping the final bolt can be greatly assisted by back-flagging your right foot beneath you. You should find yourself stood on a big polished foothold with a left-hand layaway. Try this simple flagging technique and BE AMAZED.

βeta: Failed to reach the belay on this - and since I've on-sighted every 7b I've done this year I would guess the grades a bit low.

βeta: are you satisfied it's still 7b Craig. The feeling on the day it was re-bolted was that holds had come off and it was quite a bit harder? Dave
