Shark Fin, 6C
This problem has sparked a lot of discussion and I feel most comfortable to explain it like this. For the purity of climbing which is to go from a start point to an end point using the easiest path it comes in at a solid v3. Using the boulder this chunk is dislodged from to create awesome hand jams and crack technique leads to a good challenge for any gym climber. ***However if you so choose to go for a little extra challange, at v4/5 use only what is offered on the chunk that has dislodged which leads to a crazy cross over pinch and toe hook.

Definitely favors those with longer reach. Love that toe hook cross over pinch.

I was able to use a few good jams, which made the moves to the gaston. I think V3/4 could be a fair grade 👍
