βeta: I used to lap this route years ago every time I went to Stanage before a big fall on a well known arete route. I did for the first time since then (4 years) yesterday and it blew dem cobwebs out. Felt wonderful.

βeta: Not too fluttery....o/s'd it after a mate fell off at the pocket so i was glad to keep it together....spot on for 5b....not sure if it warrants an adjectival grade.

βeta: What a boulder problem!!! Its a perfect line and breathtaking to climb (whether thats to do with the adrenaline from the height or the wonder of the moves) - an absolute MUST.

βeta: Who cares wot the grade is.... all i can say is its a magnificent route/problem.... the friction has to be good and you have to be able to trust your feet... my 2 mates couldnt do it because they didnt trust the friction... I think every one jus breathes out with such a releif after topping out tho... GREAT STUFF

βeta: Very lovely, definitely not a boulder problem, defintely harder and scarier than some e1s and 2s. nearly fluffed it with my foot in the pocket and was shaking once i got over the top :o)

βeta: Fantastic, worth a mention in PGE, but how anyone wants to give it an adjective grade i have no idea. Its not very high, and once you are at the break, it is all over.

βeta: HVS 5b. Deserves a proper grade given its height. My advice is to try jumping off from half height a few times to get your confidence up!

βeta: Quite bold. My mate fell off the bottom and hurt his ankle. So don't do that.
