[Hide Comment] This is the hardest line on this wall by far, and the only one potentially 4+. Turd burglars maybe a 3. May 1, 2018

[Hide Comment] One of the best lines at MRG for the grade, and one of my favorites Sep 27, 2018

[Hide Comment] Not sure how some people are saying this is a soft V4? Feels rather true for the grade, would probably be a V6 in most commercial gyms. Sep 7, 2021
[Hide Comment] Tooth is broken off/missing. Gotta lunge up to the final crimp now Feb 26, 2023

[Hide Comment] Maybe a bit harder with the broken hold but still managed to do it with basically the same method. Apr 15, 2023

[Hide Comment] Never climbed it with the aforementioned shark tooth hold, but felt harder than remora. I would honestly grade it at V5 now May 10, 2023
