-Crystal pitch, West Face on El Cap
-P.2, West Buttress "" ""
(that Peter Pan pitch is pretty brilliant also)
-40m of Outer Limits to left anchor
-hand crack high up on the Naked Edge
-hand crack high on the Rostrum
-hard to argue with Sinestra
-traverse pitch, Fiddler on the Roof, Red Rocks
-the topout pitch on Tis-sa-ack will probably go free, and if you pull that one off you should probably quit climbing then and there.

Oh, and who can forget the overhanging broccoli-head pitch way off the deck on Lord of the Thais??

I like a lot of the ones listed, I also would mention the face pitch on Hobbit Book in Tuolumne.
Would like to get back on that.

enjoimx - first Off width pitch on the Rostrum the wide pitch pitch a couple pitches after the crux (third) pitch? the fifth pitch, i think!
led that pitch bitd before cams were widely being used. or before i could afford them, anyway. i thought it was stellar also.
~Pearly Gates~ 5.10 (Tahquitz)
its a double overhanging layback one pitch variation to the Traitor Horn crux pitch. super exposure. once again, way bold lead bitd before cams and chit!

Werner, I find it poor form that you would not include the change up or the sinker on your list.

Now that is one hell of a 5:10 pitch.
Seen it climbed.
Can't wait to climb it myself.

Speaking of the Gunks. How about Erect Direction. My vote for the single best pitch of 5.10 in the Gunks. That's with skipping that silly hanging belay. Birdie Party in one pitch to the top is also pretty sweet.

And Thunderbolt Peak.
