Pod dyno (project)

Unless i am mistaken, then is not v5, I dunno if I'm using something that is "out" but i would put it v3/4. Is it a sit start, or are the foot jugs out or something? Or am I just taller than outher climbers at BofA? -Magnus

If you've done it, change the grade and description on the wiki. I'm almost certain this has been done before, but i haven't and everyone i've spoken to at wolfcrag hasn't. It could be V3/4, i'm a bit of a short-ass, and i can get very close but not hold the pod. I use the sidepull to pull on, match the decent part of the hold on top, then dyno using the smears. Do you use the big ledge out right for your foot? I guess this is fine, i've never thought to do it this way. -dom

Well, i use the large sloping ledges straight under the sidepulls. -Magnus

Cool, that sounds the same way i'm trying it, i'm just a bit to short i think. I added it to the wiki at V4 6a. How does that sound to you? Feel free to change its grade, or the grade of any other problem if you think its off. It would be good to get a better consensus. -dom

Sounds good. Changed it to v3/4 6a. i guess height (for obvious reasons) makes a huge differance. 3 for lanky larries, 4 for shorties? -Magnus

Retrobolting at the Wolfcrag.

There has been some recent debate on bolting on some of the faces, including the main face, of the wolfcrag. The general concensus is that this will not happen, and a warning that there are several people who will remove any bolts which are placed. -Magnus
