[Joe on Kelly's Overhang Stanage, 2 kb]16m. An amazing ascent for its day, it still has seasoned Extreme climbers floundering. From Twisting Crack, make awkward moves to a poor rest on the block beneath the overhang. Bridge out right along the lip and make a hard move up and right to reach holds on the wall. Finish easily. © ROCKFAX

Andy Moles - Lead β - 14/Nov/10 with Clare

I reckon mid grade E1 for the onsight. The clock is ticking and working out the move is very tricky. I think E1 hard 5b is fair. The move is so sweet though. Overhanging pump to delicate slab in about 1 second. Rockfax bad beta about attempting to go low.

Fannied around building up the nerve to 'go for it' at the crux. Holds are there where you need them. Horrid reach to attain slab - delicacy and strength required.
Lumbering Oaf - 2nd O/S - 18/Oct/09 with Rach Batt

So nearly onsight but toe slipped at step across the void. Lowered off and did it again clean. NB, Some good wriggling action actually achieves a pretty good knee bar/toe hook rest at the block, then it's just a matter of getting across the void...! Really satisfying holding that move.

Jonathan Hall - Lead dnf - 08/Aug/09 with Rob Middleton

Felt more like 5c to me on the on-sight, got it clean and although it didn't feel too desperate it was difficult to read the crux. It was harder than plenty of the E1's on Stanage eg Millsoms, Morrisons, Saliva, Namenlos.
smudge - Lead O/S - 06/Aug/09 with Den Onac

Continued lead after Tim backed off the crux. Rested on gear - the UKC grading makes me feel a little better!

Think HVS 5b is about right, no harder than Flying Buttress Direct

First E1. Utterly gripped. Pulling onto the slab I popped my shoulder out but carried on anyway.
jonnybull - Lead β - 2006

Interesting finish, after travesing into the "bad" rest (it isn't, but requires flexibility). Not sure whether to traverse out right from this, or up and then step right. I did the top finish, and it seems E1 5c ish.

I took the piss out of it and it`s reputation with over supplety, over confidence and over brutish behaviour. Maybe HVS after all then

I probably set a record for the slowest clean ascent of this route. Endless shuffling between the 'good' rest on the block to the tricky crux moves. So slowly in fact that Penny (who forgot her harness) had time to walk back down to the car, drive home to Sheffield, get her harness, drive back to Stanage, walk up to High Neb... and I was just topping out! Nearly 2 hrs??!
