Since its probably not as hard as the Jade move which people think is a V13 move, its probably around V12. V7+V12+V8=V13 methinks. also, i can't climb V14. also also, Phil is BEASTMASTER.

For example, Max Z registered it as V13 when he did the 3rd. It seems like in the time that has passed since Phil’s 2nd ascent that V13 is becoming the more accepted grade.

Phil's video says 8B+ and Dave has it registered so as well (even if he comments 'maybe 8b'). Speculating is OK, but I think we should respect the proposed grades, or otherwise be explicit in our skepticism. That said, I enjoy your blog, and the straight forwardsness of your reporting style. Keep up the good work! hi Narc

Some climbers are simply happier remaining under the radar, i.e. your James Litz reference. I also know a few normal guys in their 20's and 30's who hold down full time jobs/families/etc. and still manage to destroy double digit boulder problems.
