Thuggy Bear (cos I did it last weekend) 6b with block, 6c without.
Look what you've created cofe
thuggy Bear - There's a big block to put your foot on. Otherwise known as the floor, really.
captain hook is definately harder than zippys although they are both arse dragging shuffles, zippys is a far better problem.soft on the g, I wouldn't argue with 7b for this
zippys is a far better problem.
General view so far: It seems like we're heading for some serious expansion of the 7b+ grade - all the 7cs seem to be coming down, plus several 7bs going up.
Quotezippys is a far better problem.This is tripe. Are we discussing stars or just grade?General view so far: It seems like we're heading for some serious expansion of the 7b+ grade - all the 7cs seem to be coming down, plus several 7bs going up. The socio-demographic significance of 7b+ as representing the punter/hero transition has been discussed here before, so I won't go into that, but one thing is clear to me: since the last guide people have got better. Cofe for instance, has done Brad Pit. There are other examples. In summary, I think we need to make a bit more space for what I propose calling 'the easier 7cs' rather than just expanding 7b+ to accomodate all the proud problems that punters are suddenly wobbling up.For starters, I now consider WSS 7c. It was considered hard/ borderline before, since the pebble loss the easiest sequence is no longer viable - therefore 7c. And another thing - why is jonjon offering 'an opinion'? Surely he will just take a red pen to the final manuscript and lay down the truth?
