It's probably not the V7 it gets in the Rockfax. And that's not because of any grading scale preference, but because we couldn't touch it. Although to be fair, Johnny 'Haribo' Brown was experiencing one of his sugar lows by then and had thrown his toys out of the pram somewhat, and I'm practically a shandy swilling southerner nowadays. So who knows?
Dense said he thought it could well be unrepeated. Saying that, I doubt he has frequented this quarry since it robbed him of a few teeth several years ago. Again, who really knows?
I'm sure if the sequence gets unlocked at a reasonable grade this has all the hallmarks of an out of the way classic. Like Pinchy the Lobster.
