Country Lovin and Hidden Dragon both topout. Country Lovins top out is one of the best I've ever seen.

You should go do them, Alan.

If the grade has an X attached to it, the topout is soooo sweet. Nothing like a big ol' dollop of adrenaline to enhance the scenery.

Like twice as sweet as the R ones?

Well...., Just because it's an R doesn't mean you won't die if you fall. It's just not a sure thing.

some of the R's I have done protected just fine with bros or tiny cams. Some were just a bit runout. The x always worries me.

Yep, Technology changes things. The last pitch of Tower of Power scared me pretty good back in the day. 512OW toproped it recently and said it looks like it would protect well! I'll still call it R until somebody leads it again. Meteor maker was really frightening, maybe not so much anymore?
