I think NM is right. The ewbank system is meant to be the hardest move. But i believe that is how hard a move feels on the ascent (onsight, redpoint, etc) not the dog. So a route like Rubber Lover is 25 but the hardest move on the dog is only about 20 (from memory).

Other grading systems (ie English) offer more info on the sustained nature and potential danger but are confusing. So my idea is we give a route numerical grading say from 1 to 38 or so, let the grade get confirmed or changed by numerous ascents and then offer any significant info in the route description (such as no gear, sustained, one move wonder etc). Now there's an idea........
