James Webb keeps delivering in Rocklands and the last week he has done three 8B+’. The Book Club in the great picture by Hanna Donnelly In total Jimmy has now done 105 boulders 8B+ to 8C+ and he is #1 in the ranking game. He is also a superior #1 counting only flashes with 117 8A and harder although he is knows for often giving personal down grades.

Matteo Menardi has done hos sixth 9a, Underground in Arco. (c) Marco Menardi "Last week I came to Torbole on holiday with my family, I also had to take two university exams. Since the conditions were quite good, I decided to try Underground. This unique route is split into two parts: the first features dynamic moves and ends with a "power-hungry" boulder problem, which is the crux. After a very good rest, there's the tricky second part, where in my opinion body tension plays a big role, especially at the very end. I tried the route for four days, yesterday I made no mistakes and got to the top."

Daniel Woods has made another FAs in Brazil, Enter the Wood 8B+ and Direct Hit 8C in Ubatuba. "Left arete of Fortaleza. 7 move v14 (8B+) intro straight into final v11 (8A) sequence of Fortaleza. Amazing movement, powerful, skin friendly." In total, Daniel has now done 26 8C's and 5 8C+'s and in the annual ranking game, he is #2 after Jimmy Webb. (c) Matty Hong

Katie Lamb has during the last ten days flashed two 7C+' as well as redpointed two 8A+'. In the picture we see Mind Matters in Guanella Pass and the next week she did No More Greener Grasses in Mt Evans. "Topping out about 10 seconds before a downpour made for a wet, yet spicy time! Arriba! 3rd try from the bottom? Right in my wheelhouse. My friends Stick “Brian” Nuggels and Liam “A-Bulldog” gave me momentum for a big day at Guanella Pass because Stick is The Greatest Flasher and has the “Big Stick Energy”. With my friends near I felt the Power of strong belief and positive thought wave frequencies. I was like “go go go” and made a flash on Toxic Shock Low and Crimping Matters, both 7C+, my first flashes at the grade. The friendship and happiness was really in the air now, and I turned to the big show, Mind Matters (8A+).

Davide Picco has done his fourth 9a, Biologico in Arco. Interesting is that the Italian started climbing at 19 and then in just three years he reached 8b and after six years he did his first 9a. "As for the fast progress I've been climbing for 8 years now, during the first period I used to train twice a week, but then the number increased to 6/7 because I really much liked the sport, sort of addictive. I mainly train indoors on intense endurance circuits of 25 movements or so, but I also like pure power sessions on training boards or on pan gullich."

Jorge Diaz-Rullo has done his fourth 9a+, Biographie in Céüse. Including also one 9b and one 8C boulder etc, the 19 year old is the superior Combined ranking game leader. "For me is a dream the route. Amazing place, experience, process and all the people that support me. At finish, I was working 8 days and I used the other betas for the boulders. THANK YOU! MERCI!"

Isabelle Faus has done her 37th 8A+, Small Box in Coal Creek. "It’s a fun climb with a couple hard moves off a bad crimp and a tricky toe hook. Been having a fun summer climbing on this boulder and in the park. I’m psyched to go Africa in a couple weeks, hopefully I can do a few more things in the mountains before we go." The picture is from Spread eagle in RMNP, her 8A #55. The last 12 months she has also done one 8B+ and eight 8B's and she is #1 in the 8a ranking game.
