"Ambrosia takes the tradition one step further, climbing straight up the middle of a spectacular 45 foot overhanging face on the Grandpa Peabody boulder.---The climb starts with a V11 boulder problem up to a hueco around 20 feet (a V11 that took days to do and hasn't been repeated... hmmm...). From there Kevin calls it a 5.13a solo. He had worked it on toprope, then fired it first go unroped."


Amazing effort on a stunning line, well done

It does look amazing and rather scary.

Interesting that on there and on 8a.wank they're debating how to grade this new route (Ambrosia).

An 8A (or perhaps harder by the sound of it) problem into 7c+ solo that's too high to be classed "highball". It's obvious that the best grade for it is an E grade and a bloody high one I would have thought. After all the shit that's been written about E grades not working, they turn out to be the only logical way to grade this thing.
