LPT grade changes
Jun 23 2009, 8:12 AM EDT
Here is my list of possible grade changes, what do you think? ('?' means I'm less sure): The Refrain 7b Under the Boardwalk 6c Pas de Deux 8b Mussel Beach 7c+ ? Over the Moon Direct 7c+ ? Seaguls Dilema 8b+ Liquid Ambar 8c+ ? Wild Understatement 8a+ Wall of Voodoo 7b Cafe Libre 7c+ ? Kaffe Facet 6b+ Do you find this valuable?

"Here is my list of possible grade changes, what do you think?Interesting comments young peter... The Refrain 7a+ ...its only got one hard move and you can't give it the same grade as La Boheme! Under the Boardwalk 6c ...as per the old guidebook. Mussel Beach 7c+? ...give Parasite the baby 8a tag instead? Battle of the Little Big Orme 8a (and not the oft quoted 8a+) ...the out right then back left way is easier and better. The original left way may be 8a+. Over the Moon Direct 8a ...and not a particularly easy one! Seagulls Dilema 8b+ ...has to be same grade as The Walking Mussel. Kaffe Facet 6b+ haven't had a go at the others Do you find this valuable? |

Refrain 7b..I agree, fookin desperate crux for 7a+(not done La Boheme,but maybe thats 7b+...??)Under the Boardwalk 6c..always a sandbag at 6b+ Mussel beach...soft 8a, but i would say that, and Ive not done any of the other 8a's so can't really comment, but the crux is still quite beefy despite the easier climbing below... Kaffe Facet 6b+ Shit, if thats all i can comment on i need to get back down stairs...pronto....hmmmm, Parasite is baby 8a eh............. Do you find this valuable? |

Mussel B and Over Moon Direct should stay as 8a i think. Seagulls and Walking the same grade yeah. I think Pas de deserves the official upgrade to 8b now, pretty spicey . And if Pete has another sesh on it without doing that move i'm budging it to 8b+, ha! The refrain could well be 7b for the onsight (rarely onsighted!). Is Liquid Ambar a hard 8c or 8c+. I'll try some more 8c's in the next year and let you know! Certainly a formidable link. Sea of defo 8c+. Never tried Wild Understatement but i think its morpho at the top. I spose if Under Boardwalk goes up one then so should Kaffe Fasset.Do you find this valuable? |
