Are you allowed to toe hook the left arete? It feels almost easier this way than with the block method.
Thanks

I think it was graded before the 'vision' of toe hooking. In my opinion it's in, otherwise the line is an intermediate, however this method is more like 7a. Still really good though.

Block method is definitely easier, left toe/heel hook is easier than the rf on the little dink (original way) but quite a bit harder than the block method IMHO.. I'd say 7A/7A+.. But I'll take 7B

Cheers guys. Yeah it feels about 7a/+ with the toe hook. Really fun that way I thought anyway.
