f6B = 6c+?
f7A+ = 7c+/8a
Very not in the Peak - not in the UK in fact butQuote from: ashtond6 on September 16, 2015, 11:34:35 amf6B = 6c+?seems to be the standard exchange rate over here, whereasQuote f7A+ = 7c+/8a... isn't7A+ =~ 7c on both of my current 7A+ projects (Fj & Kochel). But both are short cruxes followed by reasonable rests followed by 6B/+ ish. Sustained pumpfests might be different.
If you just want ballpark ideas then just add 3 grades, as Muenchener implies. Should be right +/- 1
If you ever make it to Scotland -Consolidated F7B+ (Fr7c+ ??)Or the Extension to the above at F7C (Fr8a ??)
Woops, forgot to mention they're both at Dumby!!There are numerous other problems with "traverse" in the name at dumby but they're usually more like actual problems that just go a bit sideways.1990 Traverse at F7B is a good one, but it doesn't ever get given a route grade edited as I just saw it gets Fr7b+ in the latest Stone Country guide. Gimme a shout if you're going down and I can show you round. (Based in Glasgow again)
Full Green/Dope on a Slope is 7A+ and may be easier than 8a, even if you stop and pretend to do a clip in a couple of placesbased on my half remembered experience as an 8a redpointer 20 yrs ago

(Based in Glasgow again)f7B=F7b+?!?? seems harsh! im not climbing anywhere near 7B yet (hence this thread) but I done on F7b & been v close to F7b+
ok thanks! I was thinking of heading there on Friday... Find Dumby totally desperate, kept blowing the last move on Persistence of Vision on my last visit!
Are those Shark grades?

That's the point, comparing them is pointless
