Underrated
Agree with reviewers and Wee's book...now a 6b...probably a 10b or a 10c. Overhanging start (10b) leads to crux after 3rd bolt. Some stemming and some power moves with your right arm with a somewhat hidden pocket allow you to get over a mini roof for the 4th bolt. Top is much thinner but positive angle. Great view at the top.

tricky
Definitely under rated, it is now graded 6b in Wee's guide. Tricky stemming and cranking on a small hold. But can be worked on as there is a good rest just below the crux.

Red Point ascent by:
Tough climb
Grading is odd at Tonsai - this is well sandbagged at 6a, and is not a good beginner's lead as the start is overhung with a bad landing. The start is more intimidating than very hard - but the crux involved some pretty tricky stemming for me and would be harder for short people. A good 10b. Don't do it in the sun! Afternoon climb...
