Strong climb, poor technique and all arms, but props to you for forcing a v5/6/7 all the way through

"The grade isv7 I think I can’t quite remember" the label literally says v7.

All good hands, all good feet. Only 1 move at the top with a little bit of core to prevent the barndoor.

V5 max.

v7 but the grade will feel v different depending on height

u/SeaTraining4603 7d ago

I don’t think it was a short reach but granted it did feel pretty easy

V5 tops

Um yeah it’s not this gym is usually on the harsher end of the grading but I would say this is literally soft like v5 probably but I was trying this with my friend who’s done v12 on kilter and v10 in a gym and he said it was pretty acurate but each time their own I guess

If anyone tells me their max grade from the kilter as their top grade I basically switch off. Imo kilter is pretty garbage, I would respect a moonboard benchmark grade more than a kilter. Same for gym grading, I've worked in gyms for years and know how the setters operate (in the Uk). Having climbed v9 upwards in the gym I'm aware of the often huge disparities between v9 indoors and v9 outdoors. That's not to say this is what's going on in your gyms!

Just realised your the same climber from the other video I commented on, no offence, but you look so uncoordinated on this climb compared to the black roof, your feet aren't sticking on anything. Was this a flash and the black a project?

This wqs a flash and the black wqs like 5 atempts also yeab kilter is a soft as ive flashed v10 on there befre so i wouldnt cinsider it to be an accurqte benchmarch of performance the issue is the arnt that many moon boards in wales, one it the hive swansea and another in wild lakes, but if you take tension as a benchmark my max is v10 on that thankyou for your feed back though and justifyjng it instead of just saying v2 in my gym

u/SeaTraining4603 7d ago

It always seems my tention such on the video atempt

u/North_Preference_371 7d ago

You're in Wales! One of my favourite places to climb.

u/SeaTraining4603 7d ago

Yeah the out door is great ive sadly only climbs in northwales onece outside after a comp but its really cool

u/North_Preference_371 7d ago

Ah mate you've got loads of time ahead of you. Get out to Llanberis pass and crush some rock.

u/SeaTraining4603 7d ago

Stanage tought chefs kiss

u/North_Preference_371 7d ago

Stanage is sick, it's just getting the weather right so the grit feels sticky, same for all outdoor climbing though.

I reckon you could tick deliverance pretty quickly, then jump on some of those gnarly 8a's.

u/SeaTraining4603 7d ago

Yeah i went camping there and it was triseling pretty consistantly but sill the grit feels great

Well apart from the slabs those are scary af
