We thought this is D major, apparently we got on the wrong route. After finishing we thought that this is Arapalis's old schooled grade 10 and was a little scared of everything haha. After we checked the new guide book and realising that this is Decibel not D major, which means that I still haven't done D major and accidentally struggled on Decibel twice! I lead the first pitch, and then Clive did the second pitch of D major.

One move, but it's a good move! Reasonable protection and the exit is novel.

Decibel P1 quite delicate then a surprise hand jam near the top. Not sure I'd give it a star. Up the easy Stentor chimney with one piece for sanity, then a commiting step into Stentor P3 which is short but nicely sustained, a bit of a pump hanging around for gear. Wouldn't give that 17 or an R rating though.
	16	★ Decibel - with John Pitcairn	Trad 50m	★ Good	Grant Johnston
Crux at the top is easier if you jam the correct hand. I didn't. Only realised watching John second.
