Chris Pollard on Rock Bottom V6/7a photos: Si Panton


.

Chris Pollard has climbed a new problem in Split Infinity Cave on the Ormes.

Rock Bottom V6/7a starts matched on the slopey break at the start of Lickety Split, and then traverses rightwards beneath the roof until a good hold is reached and it is possible to break upwards with the choice of a pair of slopey crimps and a shothole (as per the start of Incomplete Youth)to reach the break. Continue up via a diagonal shot hole to good holds and jugs in the upper break.

Chris made the following comments on the grade:

”Based on the grade given for Dust Kick, which is similar in style, and other local problems, I think V6/7a is about fair.”
