These appear to be different names for the same problem:
http://peakbouldering.info/problems/433 (http://peakbouldering.info/problems/433)
Tried it yesterday with a variety of different methods, including:
Hold good, downward pulling holds on bottom of wide break about 1m right of arete, poor footholds, jump for top, fail to get close.
Hold good, downward pulling holds about 2.5m right of arete, where the break is narrow, poor feet, jump for top, fail to get close.
Undercut top of break, high, good foothold in between the two described above with left foot, try to get stood up, flail, fail.
All the holds (including the top) very lichened/dirty/scrittly, but the block and its location fit the exact description in both Froggatt to Black Rocks and the latest Peak Bouldering Guide (10m to the right and behind you as you're facing the side of the King stone with Green Man etc on it).
Anybody done it, or know the deal? Any info much appreciated.
Cheers,
Nic

Just get Dave on it to flash them all and give them a rough grade. Even with one shoulder not working!

Did this today - cool move and tough for 6c I thought. Undercutting the top of the break works.
