Eddie Fowke z The Circuit Climbing spravil s Margo Hayes interview ešte počas prvého dňa skúšania La Rambly a tu je výsledok. Margo sa chystá do Októbra pobudnúť vo Francúzsku a jej cieľom je zúčastniť sa väčšiny závodov svetového pohára. Prikladáme aj jej 8a denníček, v ktorom si v súčte zapísala 91 prelezov do obtiažnosti 9a. Čo sa týka bouldov, táto devätnásťročná američanka má na konte tri 8Ačka a prvé z nich preliezla, keď mala len trinásť. Minulý rok vyhrala na Majstrovstvách sveta tri zlaté medaily.

We have ranked 12 strategical and practical short cuts in order to push grades. Most climbers focus on strength, i.e. in comparison it is easier to develop technical, tactical and mental skills, which are the focus here.
