A sit start to The Big Island. A long standing project that saw a lot of attention before finally succumbing to Simon Lorenzi after 25 days of work.

After ticking the stand start quickly the low start was a much more protracted affair, stretching out to 25 days of effort. To make a crucial knee on the sit work better Simon used a book underneath his kneepad to make his shin a little longer. The name of the problem comes from the title of the book. |
