10m. Not unexpectedly, the right-hand crack is thuggish. Fortunately it is well-protected and the difficulties are soon over. Thought by many to be a harder proposition than Brown's!

The upgrade is a misprint, presumably - reasonably straightforward HVS. Compare Joe's/Brown's Crack next door.

I'm not being funny, but I thought this was harder than Brown's crack. My mate threw up on this, but kept it down during Brown's crack. I threw up on prostration

Short and sharp. Two moves and it's done. HVS sounds right, even if my ego would rather see it at E1.
