8m. The left-slanting groove is reached from the right though a more technical Direct Start is also possible at the same grade.

Go with the Direct Start which is an easy layoff to the right. You can protect this move before you're off the ground with a Hex 8 or 9 but you may have a mare getting it out like we did!

Is it even 4b to start direct?
