used to try this every time I went there. Finally got it just before I left NZ. Apparently is only a v6 because someone way back when decided that no mantle problem could possibly be harder than v6. course that's been disproven since, but the grade sticks.

It took me about four goes to get the left foot established on polished feet, but then I proceed straight up to the mantle. The top-out is tricky and after floundering around up there I had to reverse down a couple of steps and use the mono pocket as right foot and largest pocket as a very high left foot in order to top out.

Didn't try to work this out in any intelligent way. Just chucked my left heel up a few times and tried to press it out and ended up back on the pads every time
