Tor locals might like to do ben's roof using the original line but no-one would expect anyone other than the local devotees to use the right hand exit nowadays)
It's not a big deal

I have no idea where we're going any more, we're certainly not really on pads any more
With the tor, bens roof has been kept at 7c+ has it not, to quote Ben the other month upon seeing someone trying it with a kneepad "interesting what grade does it get like that, about 7b" how many people have took a reduced grade for Mecca while wearing pads? If they don't help why would ned ave chosen to put the kneepad in n posed giving 2thumbs up for the camera while laughing for about half an hr.
Pads are all very well but not everyone chooses to use them. This is not the same as choosing not to wear shoes or use chalk.
Saying everybody can use them n make new grades up based on knee pads alone is a bit missing the point?
Eliminating equipment isn't quite the same as eliminating holds though is it?
