I think that splitting a thread for Unjustified would be an unjustified thread split.

And if you did remove this bit, would we get 8b+ for continued reading or 8c?

Don't let the truth get in the way of a good story. Emma's awesome at technical stamina stuff anyway so I'm sure she'll do more.
 

Anyone want to regrade true north for those who can do the direct/lank method on full tilt?? I found the loop out right low down on this the crux and fell here the most times on true north.


Give yourself 8c+ then   ;)
I would do but this is the way Tony went..

Potential difference of opinion?

Ry Pasquill did the 2nd ascent of Diamond Dogs (8c+) today. The hard routes round here don't get many repeats so that's pretty darn cool.

Effort! That's quick, he hasn't been on it much surely?

Couple of sessions last year and a couple of sessions this year IIRC. He has done 9a in 3 days you know  ;) (albeit a Spanish one).

Mawson pointed out to me that 4 different British 8c+'s have been done this year by 4 different climbers (and no McClure). That's pretty good going really!

 Thanks Joble, but its just British 8c+'s on this list I think, but you could add Alex Barrows with Staminaboys - not a proper sport route, but 8c+ worth if route length climbing.

You can get on the list in brackets Ben ;) but long boulder problems don't count  :P
