This was the second ascent of a new 90-foot sport route (130 feet if you count the 40-foot 5.8 approach pitch), with an unconfirmed rating of 5.13a -- the "green route" at the new 12-story Towering Rock Gym in Beverly Hills, California. As usual, Tom Cruise got the first ascent. I hate that guy. Jay HAHA!!!1 Jay, pretty gud discription of the "green route"... I just have one question though. Do you really hate Tom Cruise?

I have traveled all over the country and a far amount around the world and have done dozens of other peoples routes at the grade and established dozens of my own routes at the grade...

I agree. I called it .13a because you called it .13a when you redpointed it. You didn't start calling it .12d until after I redpointed it. The only reason I'm sticking with the .13a is that Douglas failed to send it in two tries on TR (compare with, say, The Action, that he sent with ease on his second try, on lead). Jay
