Grade Creep in new Bourdon guide
Grade Creep in new Bourdon guide
Was thumbing through the new guide and noticed some grade creep on long-standing routes:
Centrefold at 10c?
Popeye & the Raven 10d?
I find it VERY tough to give the Angel's Crack 10b (is it as tough as the Pillar?)
Anyone know why these grades were bumped up?
I know the grades for the new routes at Chek are still being confirmed but I'm not sure about calling Trunk Monkey 12a. On the other hand I thought the grades should be reversed on Crawling Right and Creepy Crawlers. I think Rug Munchers is good at 11d, its defintely one grade harder than Filth Infatuation. My $0.02
