Luke Fletcher has re-climbed Bus Stop, the popular Dyffryn Peris test piece, after the starting hold broke off. It's now more dynamic and around 7C. The hold had been rattling since at least 2016, and there had been some discussion about glueing it.

Mr Fantastic will now obviously be harder, but nonetheless still totally do-able.

Also of note here is Andy Moles’ ascent last year of an actual sitting start to Jerry’s Roof Arête. Start with hands matched on the obvious rounded boss; there’s a good toe edge too.

”I’m not sure if the extra moves bump it to 7B or not? Anyway, it’s worth making this the default line as it’s more logical than the old crouch start. Great problem, strangely overlooked.”, said Andy.
