[Hide Comment] This is a fun line and goes around V1. Apr 25, 2002
[Hide Comment] If you use the crack seam, you get a really good problem out of it. It feels like V2 to me. Feb 20, 2004

[Hide Comment] There are two problems here, the classic pockets in the face and then the seam without the pockets. The seam seems V2-ish and the pockets are a bit easier. Nov 14, 2007
