Yes, this pitch is more like 5.13b or c (8a/8a+, depending who you listen to). As to the trad grade; it was the custom at the time to give bolted slate routes trad grades, but anyway if you think this is a sport route go and have a go at pitches 1, 2 or 4.
@pitot1988 you're born in 88 and you dont recognize Creed? It was the band everyone made fun of before Nickelback lol. I secretly used to like em in high school. The Song is "Higher."
I enjoyed watching; but better him than me.

Those are sticky soles. The original music on Stone monkey was Yo Mama by frank Zappa. An iconic climbing film

Slate Quary in Llanberis, Wales, UK. Slate is a awful material with no friction and whole this hole in the Earth looks very depresive.
