This has been repeated already by Ed Hamer – see photo below, but we don't have full details on this problem – anyone?And, as reported on the Marmot Athlete Blog, Katy Whittaker has made a repeat of the super-classic Brad Pit at the Stanage Plantation.Commenting on the problem, Katy said:”I have tried it a few times in the past and it has always felt totally impossible. I tried it again a few weekends ago with my brother and it felt doable but I had trashed skin. So I rested a day, then did it 5th/6th go next time I went back.”PHOTOS: Ed Hamer, Katy Whittaker and Jordan Buys
