Name that problem

....in Magic Wood.

Does anybody know what the hairline crack, that goes straight up from the start of Wonderboy is, as seen in this photo?

I know that Andy Banks did it just a couple of weeks ago. I think (and this is a MAJOR think), that I've been told it's 7C, but as I say that could be WAY off.

cheers for looking guys. I thought someone might have some insider knowledge, as there are various other things that aren't in the guides that people know about.

According to 8a.nu it's the 8b version of Pura Vida, as opposed to the 8a+ or 8b+ versions. So your answer is Magic Wood.
