Second ascent. Initially suggested 8B+.

Although he initially suggested 8B+, Paul now seems to have taken 8C+ as per 8a.nu comment.

Third ascent. Harder than Dreamtime.

3rd Ascent. Hardest boulder I have done and 100 % my style. I think Giuliano [Cameroni] was correct on the grade. Crimp testpiece.

Hard 8C or low 8C+ IMO. It's like Jade or Hazel Grace but 2 grades harder!

Needs crazy perfect sticky damp conditions and I got them today. Physically not the hardest move I’ve done on crimps by itself but the fact the hard move is the last makes it crazy hard.

The temperature, humidity, wind, and skin all need to line up perfectly when arriving at the crux. It renders the bloc nails hard and you get 2/3 goes max once a week.... ouffff

Still two grades harder than Dreamtime whatever that means…. Time will tell. [1]
