Vertical-Life
2 pitch routes
Hi Radek. The reason for this is that the first person who logged this climb, logged it as a 7b. What are the correct names for both versions? In order to properly solve this problem, we have to create two routes in the DB, one a 7a and one an 8a, assigning each ascent to the correct one (the grade someone gave will not change when this happens, only the name could change). If you know any other routes with this issue, please let us know (which name each version should have and which grade).
I can think of the kings of metal in rodellar: Pitch 1 graded 7c+, extension is 8a+. The kings of metal graded 8a makes no sense. Florida pitch 1:8a+,extension is 8c.
Unfortunately, there are very many routes with that problem. E.g. at Engelberg, sector Schlänggen: No Time for Wanking L1 7b+, L1 & L2 8a; Laserblade L1 7b, L1 & L2 8a; Bengelzwerg L1 6c, L1 & L2 7a+; Termilater L1 7c, L1 & L2 8b+; Popey/Six Killer L1 6b+, L1 & L2 6c, L1 & L2 & L3 7a; La Vache L1 6c+, La Vache L1 & L2 7a... That's just for a start, there are more of these at the same crag resp. sector and the problem exists in almost all crags.
I suggest adding the suffix L1 or L2 to the names of all routes with two or more pitches and the same name.
Hi,
scoring for 2 pitch routes does not work properly.
lets take example od Albanski Konjak on Misja Pec.
In reality:
1st pitch is 6c+/7a
2nd is 8a
8a.nu shows it as one route, with 7b.
When adding the route you cannot grade 8a, as there is a limit to change grade to max 7c+.
Please fix it.
Radek
