Dec 26, 2024 · I was climbing on this today and accidentally broke off the likely manufactured hold, leaving behind a small edge that is definitely worse. I also noticed a bit of flexing immediately prior to the break. I had not seen any beta for this climb prior to attempting it, so at the time this good hold seemed to be the obvious thing to pull on. It felt v5/6ish using the good hold as it was. I suspect using the small edge that remains now is no better than using the original beta, so the original beta may be preferred. I will post a photo of the broken hold to this page, I hope the nature of the climb as it was originally intended does not substantially change.
