Cosmic wheels?

Not a king line, good boulder though

[leeroy]

Might have been mentioned but

Yellow Desert Scream, St Bees.
Impailed, Dove Crag. (Stunning sharp arete below crag)

[Baron]

Crescent Arete - or is only 7b+ and above considered bouldering these days?

[Bonjoy]

Good call, yorkshireman probably is the best problem in the uk.

Good but spoilled slightly by crux being slap to a razor and finishing in no man's land

[Bonjoy]

Most obvious candidates mentioned already.
Other possibles, The big sharp arete at Grinah, Jason's Roof at Crookrise, Velvet Silence and Art Nouveau are no higher than some stuff already mentioned.

what about arc royal and queen kong?

[rodma]

The Crack, Bowden

Sandy choss pile. Would be 5 star if the rock wasn't eroding so badly.

I was going to say looks better than it climbs, but it does actually climb well. It really is a pity that the rock just isn't kyloe quality, or it'd be right up there

[iwasmexican]

brass monkeys at stanage?
pongo ss at dumby?

[andyh]

Not wanting to add more grit, but Chip Shop Brawl at Stanage is clearly the visually best line on grit

[Gritlad]

the ramp at cromlech, boysens groove and the groove at wavelength are pretty cool lines surely?

[Somebody's Fool]

Am I missing something brilliant on this thread? Are you guys the crew?

Pongo SS - classic, first 8A in Scotland but not a 'King Line' in any way!

King Kong - Dumby, IMO a better line than Sabotage, but both equally good...

[Fiend]

Nice choices to have some non-arete ones. I think the groove for sure.

On the grit I presume WSS has been mentioned?

At Dumby I would agree with Sabotage or King Kong - the former isn't quite as pure but it is very proud and a full on climbing experience.

I uploaded a few shots of some unclimbed lines on Wicklow granite http://boulderingireland.blogspot.com/2012/01/unclimbed-projects.html

You would think so, some of the suggestions that have been made. Brass monkeys!

chip shop brawl is also amazing, but a route? if we're having routes surely Unfamiliar has to be in there?

[Drew]

I fear that this may be controvertial, but I think Brad Pit is a great line. Blank section of rock with three holds in line. Great moves too. I know the pit is a bit dirty, and the rest of the face is covered in lichen which detracts from it, but the view from the top is great.

[mr__j5]

Seems like perfect logic to me.

As far as I can see, assuming that you know nothing about the actual climb, if you look at it and you just want to be able to climb it because it is such a cool feature (or expanse of blankness) then it classes as a good line.

If it turns out that it climbs nicely too, then it is a top line, but this part alone can't make it a good line, that would just make it a good problem.

So I agree, Brad Pitt could qualify.

[Johnny Brown]

Good line? Great line? Or KING LINE? Would Sharma put down his spliff and charter a plane at the sight of it?

[dave]

Brad pit isn't even the best line on that boulder.

yes they are mostly decent lines rather than king ones (thats britain for you). I guess we're all just passing the time of day though, a few minutes closer to the grave,

[Muenchener]

if we're having routes surely UnfamiliarThe Axe has to be in there?

A good line doesnt mean it climbs well... hence my earlier post - where a far more interesting question is what squalid arse shuffling fetid crap heap looking problems actually climb superbly....? Dare I suggest there may a couple of problems in the cave of justice that might slip in here?

[Nigel]

Quite, this is getting out of hand. Even two of my lines have got on the list.

How about squalid crap heap looking problems that climb like a heap of squalid crap?
