Not So Easy
Not quite easy enough to be called a 5.8 in my book. This one really felt like a 5.9. It was very fun though and had one of the best undercling moves that I have experienced! The view and exposure is amazing too.

Quite intricate
Amazing sense of exposure, and very thought provoking. Really had to work hard to decipher the sequences. Very unusual for a 5.8!!!

Reachy
I rarely complain about having reach issues. But I needed another couple inches for this one. Felt like the 9 on the right of the face was waaaay easier.

Fun
Perhaps a bit harder than a 5.8, especially the beginning 3 clips. Great view- set back from road
