V6 7A

Homeostasis
Mar 24, 2024 · Send. Another great crimp line. Easier than Wheeties, about as challenging as Trick Direct, although to me it felt easier. One deep right hand crimp lock off and done. On Trick Direct getting the lock-off and the crimp still leaves another move off a horrible half pad crimp to finish.

Wheeties
Mar 24, 2024 · Send. Decently condition dependent. Really great straight-up thin cimp line. Felt about V5/6. A benchmark V5 or a soft V6. Easier than Power Glide at Stoney. About a grade up from the left variation.

Wheeties Left
Mar 13, 2024 · Send. A bit of a one move wonder. Agree with Steve. If you you boulder harder than this then it's going to feel easy, if this is at your limit it's gonna feel sandbagged. It felt heaps easier than The Trick Direct at V5. Better crimp to lock off on, the hole is closer, and the hole is a finger bucket not a tiny two finger half pad affair. Felt closer to V4 personally. Movement comparable to MoR at Stoney but about a grade or so easier.

V4 6B

Wall Street
Mar 13, 2024 · Send. Such a sweet line. PG13 because it's tall and you don't want to take a spill from up there, and because you REALLY don't want to bounce off the ledges to the left of the climb. A bit spooky but totally worth it - the upper crimp is crisp and a joy to pull on. Grade wise the moves feel V3 (easier than Spock/Walk on By/Ballerina) but the the pucker factor may warrant a V4.

The Trick
Mar 13, 2024 · Send. Start on higher holds. V3 feels about right Maybe a bit easier/harder? Hard to say because I spent some time on the Direct.

Ballerina
Mar 13, 2024 · Send. Felt very similar in difficulty to Walk on By (moving off a crimp with a heel hook in overhanging terrain). Feels solid V4. Maybe a hint harder than Johnson's arete (V4) but easier than Angel Wings/Masters of Reality (V5) at Stoney.
