Yesterday, 8a published an article saying that IFSC had presented the wrong Combined results of the Youth World Championship which also involved one podium. It was based on the official results which now, 36 hours later, have been removed. It should also be mentioned that, just like during the World Championships in Paris, it took more than 48 hours for the Olympic combined sport results to be presented by the IFSC.

Michaela Kiersch reports on her Instagram account that she has done her third 8c+ in Red River Gorge, The Golden Ticket 8c+. "Hard Proudest accomp- lishment to date! Amazing climb, big moves, double dyno!! FFA" The former 9a route became famous after Ondra's onsight a few years ago. This was the third weekend during the last month where the full time student drove seven hours to the Red River Gorge. In the 8a ranking game, she is #3. (c) Andy Wickstrom

Jorg Verhoeven has freeclimbed Dihedral Wall 8b+ in Yosemite after 5 days of effort. This is the second free ascent of this route. Tommy Caldwell, the first who freeclimbed it, commented that it has the hardest pitch in Yosemite apart from The Dawn Wall. This is the second freeclimbed bigwall for Jorg in Yosemite after his ascent of The Nose 8b last year. (c's) Jon Glassberg Jorg was accompanied by his partner Katharina Saurwein, who just before Jorg's ascent did her first hard MP by Final Frontier, a ten-pitch-long 8a. Both of them have been among the best competition climbers for the last ten years. Jorg won the Lead World Cup in 2008 and this year he was #3 in a Boulder WC and Katha won one Lead event and was second in a Bouldering WC in 2008. Last year she was #3 in Eiroe Bouldering Championship.

Adam Ondra shares his plan for the Dawn Wall and he will start pushing early on Monday morning, belayed by Pavel Blazek, who has never been on a MP before. They will be accompanied by the legend Heinz Zak taking pictures. "Tomorrow going for the push! First two days of heat and climbing the first 13 pitches, then one restday of rain and then perfect conditions for the crux pitches on day 4. Starting tomorrow at 3 AM to get done as many pitches as possible before the remorseless sun hits the wall." During the FA, Caldwell and Jorgesson managed to do the crux pitches after nine respectively 14 days.

One hour later, they reported that seven pitches had been done and that the plan was to do another two pitches. Here are the grades for the first nine trad pitches: 7b, 7c+, 8a+, 7b, 7c, 8a+, 8b+, 8b, 8a+ You can find Ondra's report here. "First day, good day. 9 pitches in the bag after 6 hours of climbing. Conditions were not the best, but I could still reach the goal of the day. Now hopefully we will survive the heat on the portaledge and take a 28 hours of rest until we continue tomorrow, starting with pitch 10." 8b+, 8a+, 8c, 8a+ are coming up next and then Adam will rest one day continuing with the cruxes on day four; 9a, 9a and 8c+. After that there are still 16 more pitches to go, starting with an 8b+.

- The hospitality and scenery are one of the most beautiful things I have ever experienced. Coming alone from Japan and driving along side the coast and just meet so nice people, have touched by heart. The climbing is really nice and the rock quality is high. All the four sectors I have tried have been unique in different ways with aesthetic lines. I think Leonidio has a great potential to be a big climbing destination. Sachi Amma was invited to be a part of the first Leonidio Climbing Festival and to make a short presentation and answer questions. Within minutes, the audience understands that this is really down to earth guy answering in a very personal way, which makes people laugh. - I want to know the secret of the people living in Leonidio. In Japan people do not show so much hospitality. I want to know the secret from this trip. - Do you want us to set up a meeting with a local girl? (The major is asking). - That would be nice since I do not have a girlfriend. - Do you think I could also climb 9a if I started to scream? - That is a nice one :) Which grade do you climb now? You know when I was young my idols were Chris and Adam and they scream a lot so I also started screaming but I think you can get the same animal power just by breathing intensively.
