"8a+ right of Tierdrop - Ramshaw"??

 I thought Croxall had done something near there (something to do with dragons) but I thought it way way left of Tierdrop and not as hard as that.
 Anyone know anything more?

from June 05 Bouldering Scene column in Climber:

"...prior to his Bouldering World Championship victory at the Outdoors Show in Birmingham in March, Mark Croxall added Enter the Dragon, a short, but very intense V12/8a+ sit start problem up the steep prow left of Tit Grip at Ramshaw."


So, left of Tierdrop then.

Justin Plumtree mentioned he'd repeated Enter the Dragon the other day, didn't mention grade. He's well short so must have found a way round the reach.

Tried today, can confirm it is shit and overgraded, maybe 7c.  Total eliminate on nasty rock.  Didnt do it but fell off top slopers before finishing jug.  Bad problem.

C'mon James, you have to do it before you can really slag it.
I'm just jealous, spent the whole day in sunshine and sub-zero temps 12 floors up in manchester, from where I had a perfect view of the entire pennine ridge and its dustinmg of snow.
Then to top it all, as I'm battling the van through the nightmare that is glossop at rush hour, Jim cruises past in the other direction in his Lexus, chalk on his hands, looking knackered.
Same again tomorrow? Ho's goota eat too  :(

So with regards to you comments re Anaesthesia; I'll expect a full written apology in the post shall I?  :D

I didn't even have to pull on to say that EtD is one of the shittest problems ever, and obviously not 8a+. So there. From the Ben moon school of thought!

Obviously there is the odd exception to prove the rule. At least the crag here isn't waist high and made of shit.
