Here's the original and inimitable Stone Monkey, Johnny Dawes and his attempt to try a hands-free 'walk' up the classic slab climb Chalkstorm at the Roaches in the Peak District.
A short film by David Linnet. David said: 'Johnny tried this on a scorching hot day a couple of summers ago. Chalkstorm is often the source of a good argument about it's grade, but most folks seem to think that a normal trad ascent, without a side runner, is worth E3 5c. I'm not sure what grade you could give this but perhaps Johnny could come up with his own 'walking' grading system! So if a VDiff is a Wk 1, perhaps this would be graded Wk 8... '
