Arobayo: nuovo 8C per Dai Koyamada
(02/02/2018)
(02/02/2018)
Dai Koyamada si conferma come uno dei migliori boulderisti e continua ad aprire nuovi passaggi, spesso di difficoltà molto elevata. Una delle sue ultime nuove linee è "Arobayo", nell'area di Yakushima, in Giappone, per la quale propone il grado di 8C.
"Finally I sent a project which I’ve been working on in Yakushima!!! It was pretty hard at the lower part but upper part was also hard because mentality was tested with its height. So now, I’m super glad to be able to send such a cool project. I think it’s about V15"

Tamás Zupán apre The Last Jedi 8C
(27/01/2018)
(27/01/2018)
Nuovo 8C per Tamás Zupán con la prima salita di "The Last Jedi", nell'area di Remete-barlang, in Ungheria.
E' il terzo 8C salito da Tamás (il primo aperto da lui) dopo "In Search of Time Lost" a Magic Wood e "Zunami" in Saalachtal.
"It was an old project close to the village where I live. It is a big roof. It is hard to climbing here because it is often wet. I tried for three years. I climbed a stand start version ("The Force Awakens" 8A+) last year. After I did a lot of training with weight vest on a big overhang. And now i managed to do it, so I'm very happy."

Jakob Schubert flash su Catalan Witness the Fitness
(16/01/2018)
(16/01/2018)
Strepitosa performance per Jakob Schubert che alla Cova del Ocell risolve flash "Catalan Witness the Fitness", linea aperta nel 2016 da Chris Sharma, finora valutata 8C.
Jakob sottolinea la bellezza del blocco ma ritiene che il grado più corretto possa essere 8B+.
"'Catalan Witness the Fitness' FLASH
What a day! Since our flights are quite late we decided to stop at Cova del ocell before heading to the airport.
I already thought this boulder would fit me very well (steep climbing on crimps) and I was right. With the perfect support from @janhojer and @marcojubes I was able to flash it, thanks a lot buddies
This boulder has been called fb 8c in the past but as nice as a 8c flash sounds I can't agree, guess it is more like low end 8b+. But who cares, I was very positively surprised how good the rock was and how natural and well this boulder climbs! So psyched!!!!"

Alex Khazanov ripete The Story of Two Worlds 8C

(09/01/2018)
Bella performance per Alex Khazanov che a Cresciano sale il suo terzo 8C: "The Story of Two Worlds".
"A great way to start my 2018! One of my all time dream lines. Also managed to climb mithril with a wet top out, right after! The weather here in ticino is the worst I have experienced in Any of my climbing trips so far, rain, snow, fog, you name it. Fortunately there was one good day to used to my advantage, some times miracles do happen! Is it 8C(v15)? Perhaps, perhaps not, but who am I to judge?
A small dream just came true!"

Dai Koyamada, nuovo 8C con Gekirin
(09/01/2018)
(09/01/2018)
Buon inizio d'anno per Dai Koyamada che nell'area di Ryutosen, in Giappone, apre "Gekirin", il suo ennesimo 8C.
"Sent a project at Ryutosen in Nagasaki today! It’s really unbelievable. Sometimes I can demonstrate extreme power unexpectedly. It might be today is the day or it’s because of succeeding weight control or just taking enough rest after shoulder injury or all of them. Not sure but I’m very happy to make it anyway. It’s a great start of new year.
It’s ‘Gekirin’ (逆鱗) and I think V15~ but need more time to fixed.
I can say it’s the hardest in Kyushu."
