Ro has a discernable crux? Not that I have sent it, but all parts of it felt pretty equal to me, it's my weak-sauce lack of endurance that makes it hard.

Some guy at Miguels said Fuzzy Undercling has a V6 start, anybody disagree? :)

If the route is rated 11A, then shouldn't the hardest move on the route be 11A, and therefor the start should just be a V1?

One could argue that pulling through the big left facing scoop half way up is harder than the rest of the moves on the route.

Given the erosion at the base of the route the start probably feels V6 if you're too short to reach the holds...
