as i think Andy B mentioned earlier, the 7b wall/slab on the andler stone at Stanton moor is excellent! Well worth the drive if you can get a lift....
It is good but anyone thinking this is a slab... or anything like a slab needs a good  :spank:

In order of difficulty (and certainly not quality!) the following cracks/jamming should keep you amused:

20 ft Crack (Burbage)
Great Slab Roof Crack (Froggatt)
The Abyss (Rowtor)
Look at Me (Cratcliff/RHS)
Definitive 5.12 (Burbage)
Jam and Blast It (Rowtor)
Definitive 5.11 (Burbage)
The Kursk (Burbage)
Savage Me Softly (Cowper)
Jackaloupe (Moorside)
Picalli's Pickle (Robin Hood's Stride)
Zippatrocity (Cowper)
Bob Marley Extension (Cowper)

Good luck with that new-found technique!

Another good slab is the 7a round the corner from Ben's Wall at Robin Hood's Stride.


Exactly where are:

The Kursk at Burbage?

Jam and Blast It at Rowtor?

Why the fuck do you ask then?
For the record, Miles is spelt with an I, so dense just missed an apostrophe whereas you spelt it wrong. As for the grade, I wouldn't argue with easy 7b+. May feel 7b in very good nick but don't they all.

I fucking asked because I wasn't sure what the consensus was.

I didn't make a comment regarding apostrophes.
I spelt it wrong (and admitted so) and was glad to be corrected.
7b if you have it wired eh?

PS.  Thanks Dense, your comment was useful.

Ah I see, your post rather appeared like a reply to Dense, rather than a reply to yourself. My mistake.
