Anyone done this.
We started both hands on undercuts,feet on the back. R/h into shallow pocket,heel/toe next to undercuts,l/h into other shallow pocket r/h into deeper pocket. Swing l/f into high pocket up left,l/h into good finger hold. Get into a bit of an egyptian and up with right into jams.
Is this right,in the video on Peakbouldering Mark Evans climbs the same bit of rock as described but using some of the holds but not others.

I did it today too, in a similar way to what you described. Mark's vid looks like he's just using a bad sequence. It didn't feel 7c to me, what did you think?

Yes sounds good to me, its not an eliminate, I reckon 7b compared to Tarantula which is a proper 7c

As I've only done 7c in my dreams,I'm more than happy with kingys 7b as I haven't done one of them for years.

I did it last year, Ive never done a 7c, never even got close, and i did it in a session. At the time i was doing 7a-7a+ in a session so thats what id give it. I thought that 'iron flag' was much harder. Marks sequence looks desperate, which is probably why he gave it 7c, but there are easier ways. Great problem!
