Moritz Perwitzschky's (17) hot ascents

During the last two weeks Moritz Perwitzschky has done 20 Boulders graded 8A to 8B including the FA of Breaking Dad 8B in Frankenjura. "4 days of work and also broke out a hold but found a new one to make it possible, start of "Blutgeld", finish in "who´s the Daddy?", 13 hard moves in a row and really hard to link the last moves from the bottom, don´t know how hard it is but 8b for sure..." Check out the Winter bouldering weekend video. In the Combined ranking game, the 17-year-old is #4. (c) Hannes Pablitschko "How to keep warm: Just take some warm clothes, a big down jacket, gloves and you are fine, don't forget some tea and biscuits. For keeping our Fingers warm we heat up some stones to put them in the calkbag which works quite well. Plans for 2017: I finished school last year and now taking one year off before studying for working and getting stronger. My plans are to travel to Rocklands in summer and focus more on bouldering than the previous years. Ambitions: One goal of mine is to try Action directe finally this year and hopefully send it and basically send a lot of hard and beautiful lines, both boulders and routes."
