Cheers man, I was especially pleased with the seam on the Solidarity block (I Calcium....) as we looked at it last time we were there. It's really awkward as there aren't really any footholds for your right foot so you end up hopping your left foot up the seam and scraping your right foot up the face to try to stay on. Some really good moves but it shreds your fingers.
No-one did Rhythm.... in the end, didn't get back on it. I really want to do it, think the last move requires using a higher foothold otherwise it's a full-on dyno. Dyno-ing's just a little worrying with the blocks behind!
The other guy who was trying Rhythm... (Ben Thompson) added a sit start to the Plum, he reckons around Font 7a, I've told him to report it on here.
Hope your hands have recovered, mine were pretty shot after a week on the granite. You getting back on Andy's Arete soon? I need to go back for BBE :S
