Started from the absolute lowest possible crimps, eliminate with a defined start but climbs well, eliminate details seem to have been lost doesn't feel anywhere near 7b+ as a pure line.

Not sure on the eliminate nature of the line, but felt very, very easy with a high heel.

Tricky, or should that be tricksy? Found once I had the pinch the pull through to the break was quite hard - ended up dropping my left hand back down to the starting crimp to maneuver my feet around. A fun and interesting sequence but can't be 7b+ the way it is currently climbed.

Fell off the easy top section the first time I managed the move to the break, nightmare. Success seemed entirely dependent on your left foot.
