9a+ by Daniel Woods
Daniel Woods has done the first repeat of Vasya Vorotnikov's Jaws 2, 9a+ in Rumney. "2nd asc. spent a few days on it a couple years ago and did it 3rd day this year. Hard route to grade and very specialized.
"The breakdown is a 2 move 8A+ for the first crux followed by a mini 12d into a 7C+ lurp dyno move. Both cruxes involve around one low percentage move each. The outro section is around 8a. At first I thought 9a but after falling off the 2nd crux twice and having to fight in good conditions, I thought this could be harder. Psyched route season begins."
Daniel, who leads the boulder ranking game, did two 9a in 2009. (c) Lee Hansche - Mountainproject.com
