It shocked me when I got back on it. I had the bottom wired and then all of a sudden my first grab with the left wasn't high enough to throw right and I had to waddle and shuffle my hands upward first to get the right where I liked it.

Yep, fuzzy is a bit harder to start now for sure, esp. if you are not tall. When the stump goes on tissue, that will make that start pretty tough as well, I think. There are quite a few routes that have gotten harder due to erosion. Superslab/pink feat come to mind as well.
