This may have been done before but I couldn't find any info on it.

Climbed Kudos Original today from a sitter eliminating the jug rail for both hands and feet.

Sit start Kudos into the small undercut then straight in to the pocket above the rail and finish Kudos Original.

I'm not sure about the grade as it didn't feel as hard as I thought it would when I actually did it so could be anything from about 7C?  :-\ its a really cool and very fierce move off the undercut it would be great if someone could repeat it and let me know what grade they think it might be.

Yes this is a worthy eliminate.

I remember trying to work out a way of making the sitter link to the original without being totally contrived.

Going straight to the pocket off the undercut does this and must be a hard move.

Effort.

Thanks yeah was a really hard move!! I've had a quick try each time I've been there for a while now and finally got the strength to move my feet high enough to make the undercut work. I've got a crappy vid might try and upload it.

I was thinking the catchy name of "Kudos Original Sit Start eliminating jug rail for hands and feet"
:-)

only 7C+, really good though, i matched the undercut to move my feet up and then reach the slot, i remembered just dynoing with my left to the jugs when i did the sit originally which is why i thought this eliminate would be like 8B since I didn't realise you can match.

will upload a video soon

Good effort! Would be cool to see the video. I think you're probably right about the grade. 7C+ then. Nice one!

No it isn't. Kudos original doesn't use the jugs. Hence a sit start to that problem can't use the jugs either. This is basic stuff!

Ahhah you are correct :D. though I think the jugs have always been there they were just slots hence why you couldn't use them for feet. So the eliminate isnt so much no jug rail as it is no rail for feet. Though someone should fact check that who knows for sure...Ru?

I don't think there were any holds there when it was originally done. You pulled on with the pocket and not much else (not that this actually makes any difference to the stand).

So dave is right, there's no need for a different name as anything using the jugs for hands or feet isn't actually the original.
