Isn't that how all climbs are graded Derek? Or are you saying that the grade is wrong? Because the consensus suggests otherwise.

My 2c is that I guess you have to say that current consensus from those who have sent it has to put the sit start at V11. (Two vs One and the one known for being a tad harsh on the numbers). Prior to this send it should have been described as V10/11. In the case of a someone offering a grade that differs from a clear current consensus the Mag should note that in the article but use the consensus grade.
