Craig Davies (Ducko) recently made a smooth repeat of Pete Robins' classic roadside highball Snapdragon 8A/8A+! in Ogwen, kindly giving us all the beta via a great video (link below).
Originally graded 8A by Pete it seems that visiting beast(maker) Dan Varian (no slouch at hard bouldering) had a bit of a tussle repeating it, hence the new slash grade.
Although not known for his under-grading of problems it seems that Pete might have done so this time...just this once of course!!!
