well, you know, V8=7b=hard really! i think if you take something like west side story, thats 7b+ but it seems to me that its in a different world of difficulty to ABW. to be honest i don't think theres much in it between handy andy's and ABW. actually maybe my mind is exagerating a bit, but i'm sure font 7bs in font are much harder than that....


V8 for average stature. Though only as hold has got bigger! Used to be V9, which was probably right

Ha! You can have V7+ for being so lanky!

the hold felt like maybe the back had been scraped out to enable you to crimp it (which i certainly did). not obvious to look at though.

 V7+ is that a bit like V8+, rather controversial and totally pointless?:guns:

Sound about right those grades Adam, bit overgarded Yorkshire innit! ABW's is a piece of piss compared to West SS!

Andy never gave abw v9 or whatever it gets. He thought as I do that font 7a is about right. Also when it was first done the crimp was a LOT smaller. As for Slim shady at v8 is prob about right if you are tall like myself.
