What is the difference between blind drunk 8a and blind drunk reach method 7b? I'll go with the obvious and say a reach but can someone clarify cos I'm baffled. Would your right heel still be in for the reach? Is it even using the same holds?

The hard one does the move with the right hand in the poor dish - bunched. Whereas I think the tall can reach/ pop straight through from hanging the lip.
More importantly when did local rock suddenly pique your interest? Was that you there earlier?

Not sure on the reach method if the heel stays in the back or if you switch to a toe. Despite the "dead easy for the tall" label this gets I've only ever spoken to one person who's done it this way and that was Mick Adams.

That's what I was wondering Dave, looks bonkers to reach straight through. Personally I couldn't fathom the "easy" version.
You think my car can move in the snow johnny? I'm not interested in local rock but find I have more of a solid footing to abuse it if I nip out from time to time

Do I get 7B by default or do I still have to go and do the thing?

I think it's a bit wet at the moment, so you may as well take it if you get your right hand to the dink. If you're even thinking about doing it award yourself 7A
