thanks to those who back me up rather than just insult and down grade. looking back on this climb now, i'd say it was overated, only cuz i can do v8's now and have developed proper foot technique. the reason it was a v6 was because there are no feet for the start, so you need to really be strong at campusing, the 2 finger pockets were pretty shitty too.
You can't judge the grade of a route by simply watching the video. You have to not only SEE the holds in person, but climb the route. I could make a route of all jugs that a V6 climber couldn't climb. Never judge unless you've climbed it or attempted it yourself; you present yourself as ignorant and speedy.
I think you made it a lot harder than you needed to. If you didn't campus all that stuff and used better footwork, it would have been easier, good job anyways though!
whys everyone always so nasty? if he says its a v6 then im sure it was rated a v6 why lie about it, it doesnt make you any better.
and its DEFINATLY not a v2/v3 wotever idiot said that is obviously just jelous. Give the guy a break man. and so what if it was unnecasary campusin, he did it didnt he?
Yeah maybe like a V4...ish. Can't see the holds very well but they definitely weren't V6 type holds or moves. There was some unnecessary campusing in there also that just made it look hard.
looks like a well fun climb

It would be v3+/v4 if you use footwork and technique.
It must seem like a v6 if you campus like a rabid monkey.

Strong! Also loving the Buckley in the background :D and to the non-V6 people out there - you don't know the grade until you try the route.

umm yeah you should be using your middle finger + your ring finger on 2 finger pockets because they are stronger together. But good work.
