Egy nรฉpesebb csapat lรกtogatott el a hรฉtvรฉgi Pozsonyi nemzetkรถzi boulderversenyre. Mivel az Adidas is nevรฉt adta az esemรฉnyhez, szรญnvonalas versenyre lehetett szรกmรญtani. A 10 boulderes selejtezล‘ utรกn 4 leรกnyzรณ รฉs 3 fiรบ jutott tovรกbb a Magyar csapatbรณl a 10 fล‘s dรถntล‘be.

La Rambla is 9a+ by today's standards
In 1994, Alex Huber made the FA of La Rambla 8c+ to the first anchor, some eight meters under the original anchor. In 2003, Ramon Julian Puigblanque did the FA of La Rambla original 9a+ by traversing into the neighboring bolted route and continuing to the original La Rambla anchor. Ramonet did try to stay as close to Huber's original line as possible, meaning he eliminated a very good jug further out to the right. Until now, La Rambla original has been repeated 15 times, making it the most repeated 9a+ in the world. Everyone has used the jug to the very right of the traverse but Adam Ondra, who commented, "without the resting hold, although it is nonsense to consider it as prohibited. Ramonet has said that his 9a+ grade was based on doing the route without using the resting hold. Noteworthy is also that in 2008, Ramonet did the FA also of the neighboring route and gave it 8c. It has later been upgraded and nowadays, in fact, most even think it's 9a. La Rambla original is today a well confirmed 9a+. At the same time, both Huber and some repeaters have said that the extension does not add that much difficulty so his FA from 1994 should have been 9a by today's grade standard. By using the same grade devaluation logic, some ten years ago, La Rambla original was probably just a hard 9a if you used Ramonet's eliminated jug. Greg Mionske

La Rambla je 9a+ podฤพa sรบฤasnรฝch ลกtandardov
V 1994 spravil Alex Huber prvรฝ prelez cesty La Rambla. Jeho verzia konฤila o cca osem metrov niลพลกie ako terajลกia a ohodnotil ju na 8c+. Autorom lรญnie ako ju poznรกme dnes je Ramon Julian Puigblanque. Cesta vznikla, keฤ odtraverzoval do vedฤพajลกej lรญnie a ฤalej pokraฤoval do dneลกnรฉho zlaลˆรกku, priฤom sa snaลพil ฤรญm viac sa drลพaลฅ Huberovej lรญnie, ฤรญm vynechal veฤพkรฉ madlo vpravo. Doposiaฤพ mรก La Rambla 15 opakovanรญ a je tak najviac lezenรฝm 9a+ na svete. Kaลพdรฝ z prelezcov, aลพ na Adama Ondru, pouลพil spomรญnanรฉ madlo a aj Adam svoj prelez okomentoval slovami: "bez oddychovรฉho chytu, aj keฤ je hlรบposลฅ povaลพovaลฅ ho za nepovolenรฝ." Ramonet sa vyjadril, ลพe obtiaลพnosลฅ 9a+ navrhol na zรกklade prelezu bez pouลพitia madla. Za zmienku takisto stojรญ, ลพe v roku 2008 spravil Ramonet prelez susednej cesty a oklasifikoval ju ako 8c. Neskรดr bola jej obtiaลพnosลฅ zvรฝลกenรก a dnes je vรคฤลกinou povaลพovanรก za 9a. La Rambla originรกl je dnes potvrdenรฝm 9a+.

8A+ (B) by Caroline Sinno in Font
Caroline Sinno, who did her first 8B in Fontainebleau this spring, has done her long time project La cicatrice de l'ohm 8B+ (B). Here is her progress report from last October and her success comments. "My biggest fight in Font, it was more of a mental thing in the end. Very very pleased to have put a lot of dedication, training and hard work into this! It was nice to rediscover a forgotten line that wasn't climbed since it was opened roughly 10 years ago. It was put up at 8b/+ trav grade by Arnaud Ceintre but I did the natural exit of the line which makes it a real boulder problem around 8A+/B I think. Otherwise if you are willing to try it please be respectful of nature and brush your tick marks!! I found the line pasted with chalk. I don't want it to become like les beaux quartiers."

9a by Julia Chanourdie
Julia Chanourdie, #8 in the Lead World Cup 2016, reports on Facebook that she has done her first 9a. "WAOUHHH ! Yesterday I did my first 9a, Ground Zero at the Tetto di Sarre in Italy !!! It's definitely the best moment, to be like the "queen of the world" for an instant... Three weeks ago, she was #2 in the French Bouldering Nationals so the 20 year old is one of the few that can combine world class level in two disciplines.
