Description:

This is the arete edge of the right face of the dihedral with "8-Ball" in the corner, with "Snooker" around on the other side. Start at the bottom, not the "Snooker" block, and do not go onto the "Snooker" face at all. You will need to use a bit of the left face in the middle part, but get back onto the edge to finish. Some large holds, some of which are also smooth and sloped. If you don't do pull-ups, you don't do this climb. Some dynamic moves required, meaning you may not get it the first time.

4 out of 5 stars Phil Dow did this one too.

After doing 8-, 9-, and 10-Ball, Phil tried doing the arete. He had to remember how it was done, then did it clean. Phil said it was fun, but he is like that; Rob said it was very difficult, and agreed about it being 5.11.
