Felix had a bash a few years ago at a Highland Games event and got 5 meters IIRC.

@yiannis

Why don't you pop down and train with Mark & I on the stones. Come across when Dean comes down etc

The door's always open to train the stones Wink

Anyone seen a good attempt at carrying them? Thought it would have to be sumo but looks like Farmers style could work. It says a couple of guys have managed it but i think thats with about a million drops? No ones done it properly have they?

No one has done it fully across without drops...

My pal Mark did this feat last year; the last metre or 2 with a snapped achilles tendon (hadn't realised at the time). The small stone swung and caught his ankle which you can make out towards the end:

His aim is to walk across with them in one go this year, a few other folk looking to attempt it too (Bryan Hunsaker from the States etc)
