Are there any other classic hard problems that just climb the footholds of another?

[turnipturned]

Is the sit to Voyager really only 7B into the 8B stand?! Considering the sit has seen so few ascents and the stand has been done a fair bit, 7B doesn't seem much to add?

I personally think its 7c+/8a however I can't keep my foot on the horn at the start so have to do quite a hard move into the crimp at the start.

I think it's more a case of how many split tips you want to throw at a problem. I guess the start is enough to raise the probability from might split to will split.

I don't think its very sharp any more, since I first tried it to now, its seen a lot of action and brushing (a shame but I guess is inevitable especially as we are seeing more people operate at that grade). I had four hours on it last Saturday and was no where near splitting.

Just out of interest Dan when folk are on about it chewing your skin are they on about a particular hold on the standup? The one you frenchstart to maybe?

The only one I think is sharp is the pinch you cross to with your left hand once you have your heel up on the new method. If cold, the the crimp you jump to isn't  mega sharp, just a bit painful/ shock to the system on the first couple of goes.

N.E.D.

Great stuff. How can you say that isn't a good line, dense????????

[Nibile]

Every line becomes a good line after you've done it.
That's how it works for me.

Every line becomes a good line if it's a clean cut arete / prow

Jimmy Webb has done The Big Island and La Toupie Carnivore Assis.

In this case, I think the line looks far better than the moves do.

On 8a.nu he mentions going back for the assis, I didn't even know there was an assis for The Big Island.

Not yet there int...

[ghisino]

I didn't even know there was an assis for The Big Island.

it is supposed to be the ultimate font project.
Obvious, proud line, the holds are there, every move is clearly doable yet clearly hard. Should add more than a couple of moves to the original line, too...

Nathan Phillips sent Voyager 8B yesterday

How many ascents has it had now?

[a dense loner]

Is he American? Upwards of 20. Good stuff

[36chambers]

I didn't realise it was so many, not that significant then.

I was so close to posting "I T".

Sorry to ruin your fun. It's within your power to edit it all to your taste though...
