Toru Nakajima reports on Facebook that he has done Paint it Black 8C in RMNP which Daniel Woods set up in 2012. One week ago Toru wrote on Facebook that he tried it for the first time and that is was his first outdoor climbing in three months and that, "I'm weaker than I used to be." "Yeeeeeees!!! I completed Paint it Black V15 early this morning! I got up at 4:30am and did it at 8:30am. I cannot believe what I'm able to do while this short trip. Of cause I'm happy to sent it, but I also happy to be able to come back to such a hard climb again. I have stopped training from July and focused on studying. I started climbing again at the beginning of September, so it was too short preparation to be in best condition. Based on that, I didn't thought I can do such a hard problem. I can't believe!

Jose E. Agustí, who has done 750 routes 8a to 8c, has done his first 8c+ Massa Pelis in Sant Llorenç del Munt. (c) Marc Giol - I'm climbing since I was 15, when my father introduced me into this world. I immediately recognized that this sport was my live. I started climbing routes of about 8a at 19-year-old and in 2004 I did first 8c in Gandia (Malsoñando). I always prefer on sight climbing, in this style I've climbed till 8b (Alter ego, Rodellar), and I have managed to continue doing 8a's and 8a+ in this style. Two years ago I rebolted an ancient and forgotten project and this is what I've been doing this last two summers. Working this endurance route. David Gambus did the first ascent the last Monday two days later I completed my dream, my first 8c+! Next year I wanna try harder routes ant try to reach to the 9a before my 40.

Edu Marin has done Cosi se Arete 9a in Rodellar and comments on Facebook. - One of the most beautiful routes in the area with almost 60 meters in total with an inconsiderable and demanding finish. A master piece by Sergio Casteran y Dani Andrada. After a long summer in the mountains I am more motivated than ever and with a nice feeling, already thinking about my next goal. (c) David Munilla

The history of climbing changed somewhat when Adam Ondra entered the gigantic cave in Flatanger in 2012. Only three years later, most of the hard core celebrities visited it and everyone was blown away. For the landowner Olav Strøm and his wife Berit Hestnes everything changed upside-down. This August they had about 40 guests on and they are now personal friends with many of the best climbers in the world. The future looks bright and now there are some 250 routes in all grades within walking distance from their camping, where you have indoor accommodation and free WiFi. They have also started to offer more things like fishing gear, boat trips and they can drive you to the village for food shopping etc. But it is also about just chill out in Nature's bosom. Flatanger is located 180 km north from the Trondheim airport but with a bus and a taxi you arrive in the city within four hours for some 35 Euro! Beside that, everything is actually rather expensive in Norway but in the camping you can live low-budget. Dave Graham says it all, " I haven't felt this type of syke I'm experiencing since the first time I visited Céüse in 2001. Its crazy when you can notice the start of a new era in your own climbing; inspiration like this is only congruent with jaw dropping natural lines, and the best stone in the world. This is just the beginning; I feel giddy, infatuated, consumed, and unable to stop my mind from racing through beta and sequences of rigs I've already attempted or ones I dream of getting on next."

Gabri Moroni has done Super Circo Abusivo 9a in Paline. "Beautiful long hard technical route from Berni Rivadossi! Tried a couple of times last year, three days this summer in heinous conditions and sent on the first day of good conditions! Very unexpected!" Gabri won the Youth World Championship in 2002 and in 2004, he was #3 in the European Bouldering Championship being 17 years old. During the last ten years, he has also been a world class climber and boulderer. The last year hje has done three 8B+ and one 9a+. The great picture from Paolo Sartori is from Margalef.

Nalle Hukkataival reports on Facebook that he has done the FA of The Stepping Stone 8C in Grampians and here is the video from his previous tries. "There are moments in life that are hard to write down in words. Yesterday was one of those moments. The last month of my life has completely revolved around climbing this one incredible project. Yesterday was just one more day trying the project and it wasn't going so well. All expectations were finally out the window and it was down to one last ditch effort. The sun was dipping down behind the horizon and painting the rock red. This would be my last try. The wind kicked up. I chalked my hands about a dozen times, like I do when I'm nervous, and pulled on the rock. I was climbing on total autopilot like I have many times through the sections. A series of screams of surprise and relief lead to the sight of my right hand grabbing onto the finishing hold! I climbed the V0 topout like it was V13. Right there, standing on top of that boulder watching the bright orange sunset could be the most memorable climbing experience of my life! Surely one of the very best lines I've ever opened; The Stepping Stone, somewhere around V15. Who even knows with the upper numbers anymore. Looking forward, I couldn't have asked for a better trainer for the Lappnor project! No time to waste, I'm flying to Finland in the morning to attack it full force again! Let's see if this was the extra kick I needed to finally get the Lappnor project done! Amazing times in Australia!! SWOOOPPP!!!
