zaffs thing at burbage west?

This is the mega looking large rounded prow/roof thing in between the easy warm up wall and wss. When was this thing done? was it done by zaff? whats the grade - 7c+, and how does it go?

Theres always chalk on the bottom section but none on the top, likewise ive never heard of a repeat!

looks absolutely class.....and quite difficult unfortunately! (like most of the harder stuff at burbage west). :wink:

I met a lad at curbar yesterday who said he did it this year. Gets B11 in the book (PB). Recons with a couple of pads and a good spotter its no problem as you just  fall downwards not backwards. Have dabbled myself a few times but have only been there on my own so bottled doing the slappy moves on the bulge.

If you doa  search on "zaff" theres a post by JB about this somewhere. Think its called western eyes, does get done occaisionally when its cool.
