<blockquote> <p>After our extensive testing of the slider this turned into a pretty safe thing although I think <a href="/climber/155">Pete [Robins]</a> saying E7 is possibly a little low (although it is Pete so what you would expect) Comparing to other E7 7as such as <a href="/climb/906/little-women">Little Women</a> and <a href="/climb/2926/groove-is-in-the-heart">Groove is in the Heart</a> (fell off the last move on wed) it felt very slightly easier, Fb7b+ rather than Fb7c?, but a fair bit bolder - both the above are very safe, lots of runners and short falls, the Promise has one ok runner and a ground sweeping (although quite short!) fall. We only felt happy taking the fall on the Promise after a few 'practice' falls from right by it and with 5 pads and a ladder below (I would have been happy with no or one pad on the sunday). </p> <p>I think for James' ascent (not trusting the runner, no pads) you could probably add an E grade or two (I am sure with UKB grade SCIENCE we could work out how many exactly).
