Chipped: holds manufactured by first ascensionist. Also known as Misogynist's Discharge and Kleinian Envy.
This is currently unclimbable. Typically this is because the climb existed in some state but then changed significantly (e.g. by losing holds) and is now considered a different climb.

Recorded as Misogynist's Discharge by Paul Williams in his 1987 guide. Sadly defunct after a rockfall left large ledges right next to the crux.
