Godrevy short movie




A useful video for locating problems and some beta!....let us know what you reckon of the grades? French Toast is probably harder than V6, maybe 7 or bit harder, I just checked the rockfax grade comparison chart http://www.rockfax.com/publications/bgrades.html and as a move its defefintely hard 6c!

On the video I mistakenly called James problem 'evening sunset' which is wrong it should be 'perfect evening light'....evening sunset is another problem on Carn Brea.
