Gresham repeats Equilibrium

Planetfear.com reports that Neil Gresham has repeated Equilibrium at Burbage South. The route, which was first climbed by Neil Bentley was the first on grit to be given the E10 grade. Neil commented that with a V10 crux and french 8b climbing, it felt a full grade harder than the E9 6cs that he has climbed. The ascent came in the recent cold spell earlier this week, although Neil had been trying the route earlier in the year. It is only one of two gritstone routes to be given E10 and the only E10 in the UK to see a repeat.

Superb effort - where is the V10 crux, high or low? I was wondering if something good would come out of the cold snap this week :) Shame about the forecast this weekend...perhaps a sickie next week when it clears up again?!
