Jaani-Tooma Suurkivi
General
Location: Jaani-Tooma Suurkivi is about 80 km from Tallinn. Drive the highway from Tallinn to Narva and follow the sign pointing towards "Kolga, Võsu and Loksa". Just before Loksa grocery store and bus station turn right towards Viinistu. After a few kilometers you will come to a junction towards Vihasuu. Turn towards Vihasuu and after 0,4 km you will see on your left a sign for Jaani-Tooma Suurkivi.
Finding it: The Jaani-Tooma Suurkivi is located 0,5 km from the parking lot. It is easy to find as it is out in the open.
Other remarks: Jaani-Tooma Suurkivi is located on an open ground and has practically no moss on it and therefore it dries quickly. Although the ground is open and even there are some stones next to the routes making falls without a bouldering pad a bit dangerous. The stone has a good descend route from it's back; and if you are ready for some higball boulders - the stone is 7,6 m high - there is different type of climbing for you to try: cracks, slab and overhang.

А варианты правее "Прыг-скока" очень "жёсткие" по категории?
По вертикальному отколу с переходом на "прыг-скок" в частности.
P.S. Я живу в Кингисеппе(Россия), как возможно с Вами связаться? Уровень лазания: bouldering 7a+, difficulty 7b, trad 4a.

I would say its pretty hard there - no hands, no feet and its negative :)
can do few moves but not hard to make route.
still, considering your level you should go and try.
about contacts there is web page www.kaljuronimine.ee (mostly in estonian)
where is info about whats going on.
but best way to get connected is in person so

Да, нужно приезжать и лезть;)
В данный момент у меня нет возможности для поездки в Эстонию, но в обозримом будущем приеду.
