Seans Roof f8b+ to Font 8a+

With recent ascents by Mike Adams (tope rope) and Dan Varian (highball style), Sean's Roof, in the Peak District's Blackwell Dale has seen a fair bit of interest of late.

This line was originally bolted by Sean Myles in the mid 90's, and eventually lead by Jerry Moffatt. Over the subsequent years repeats came via the likes of Malcom Smith, Mark Leach and John Welford, however in recent times the line has seen little interest and also seemingly lost a few holds. The climb was originally graded f8b+, although with a more modern highballing approach, along with the hold loss, the climb is now seen more in the region of Font 8a+ (V12).
