Anyone done the sitter to this peach? Grade/quality comments?

Cool, someone's started a thread about this problem.  Presuming that you mean the mantel that goes through the slopey traverse right of Morrells Wall?  If so, yes I've done it.  It's good and barely harder than the stand up to be honest.  Not sure about the grade though.  Around the 6c/7a mark I guess but I'm crap at grading mantels.

If you're talking about the sit start to the right of morells wall then mantelling up about font 6b+ and quite good fun

See, clearly talking shit I was.  6b+ is probably about right I suppose unless you eliminate the chipped flat hold.  Or maybe I'm remembering this all wrong.  I'll shut up.
