what grade is it?

Ben gave it 7b: http://ukbouldering.com/board/index.php/topic,5409.msg98631.html#msg98631

But it's V9 in Froggatt guide, and 7c on pb.info

Anyone done it to comment?

The move to the break is a bit of a stopper due to the landing. ..... The left traverse top out takes you well out of bouldering territory

E5?

You're about as much use as a cock flavoured lollipop.

Never quite managed it but I think 7b+ might be a fair compromise.

Varian did it recently, not sure on grade but from their blog:

To Celebrate i whipped over to cratcliffe and RHS with Nick and did Musclin’ man (bransbys way) and my prune (stunning) My prune was a bit interesting as it was getting dark and i was getting tired and the last bit heading leftwards strayed a little too close to the bone

Aw thanks. I know you love the creamy filling.

Watched Dan do this, I think he felt it warranted about 7c although I'm sure he wouldn't complain about 7b+. He was a bit confused about the fact that it only got E5 and Kaluza Klein got E7...

[Johnny Brown]

I take it he hasn't done Kaluza then?

I'll give it HXS V8+.

[Nick B]

Of course he hasn't

Kaluza is only E6 for the tall like Dan and Johnny Brown.

Dan reckons 7c for My Prune. Glad we avoided potentially the biggest sandbag in the book...

[Johnny Brown]

I daresay its harder than Controle A at any rate.

Thats a pretty good last couple of days in font JB!

Cheers! Not bad for a trip that started with an elbow injury. I think for me the key to enjoying font is to start injured, so I have low expectations and don't bother failing/ injuring myself on something hard!

I take it that accolade will now be restored to Sheep assis.

Of course he hasn't

I wouldn't be surprised if he ground upped it above a few pads and called it Highball Font 6b

I'm glad you think this is nails too. Although there was a bigger sandbag in the last guide, which was a whole number grade out!
