so many good moves to be had on grit. although haven't tried it the lock off on the storm looks like an amazing lock and pop move.

that top one on wings of unreason is good, particularly on the solo. But bouldering wise....
first move on shirleys shining...
Deliverance wid de high right foot
Brad pit once its wired
Piss without using the top
start to silk
...i mean i could go on...


...all day...
King of them all of course, start to Careless torque. pity about the top one.

Surely a bit of a ridiculous question to try to answer. Grit, well, bouldering anyway, is all about the moves.

Currently for me the finish of A Little Sparkle @ Guisecliffe and the move on Limbless Limbo Dancer @ The Roaches are as good as they come.

Based on what i've enjoyed most recently:
 The swing round the arete on Beneath the Breadline
 Getting established on the ramp of Brad Pit
 Escaping unscathed off the Alliance :lol:

 Old favourites that spring to mind:
 Swinging round the arete on Desert Island arete
 The Cunning crossover beta on Blockbuster
 catching the Buckstone dyno
 The trav bit of Low Rider
 The big shouldery backhand catch on Sweet Release

All of Horror Arete. Every move is fantastic, but the move for the top is the best. You get there, look at it and decide wether to take the lob, commit and go for it and hold the top.

Awesome.

Oh so many, but the big heelhook to rockover on Bob's Bastard (The Caley mantel) and the reach off the jug to the crimp on Morrel's wall spring instantly to mind. As do a few of the moves on Commander Energy.

The press move on the cream eggs eliminate at caley's nice and the next move too.

I also like the crux move of the nose at burbage west too.
Give me time and I'll remember some more goodies.

the strange footlock beta method of doing the arete at remergance is very satisfying

Think my favourite has to be the big rock over on slopers on the lip of syretts roof, with the big lock for the sloper then jug. Agree with the creme egg eliminate, a class sequence. On a route flavour, the move onto the arete of Valkyrie (froggatt), or mayb the crux footwork on finger distance, particularly stand out

Zippy's problem on the business boulder at stanage is top quality - hanging infeasibly slopey slopers before making that pop for the jug.

When its cold reaching the top of piss static with some sneaky heel smearing beta.

Best of all tho, its been said before and sure it'll be mentioned again, hanging those sloping side pulls trying to maintain yer balance and get enough height to make the pop for the top on BP :D. Sweet.
