It seems like 10 is not enough. There are just too many good climbers around the world. But, i would definitely put Freh Rouhling on the top because of his approach towards climbing.

Climbers of 2004 is Yuji Hirayama (M) and Josune Bereciartu (f) with no doubt.

I think a problem is that most of the 8a.nu suggestions are scoreboard holders. Other strong and damn good climbers (no scoreboard holders) aren't even mentioned!

I find it truly amazing that you are leaving out Tommy Caldwell.....Dihedral Wall people! Sharma did not even do anything this year....Tommy gets no credit on this site....

There are a lot of people missing, that didn't puplish, but to say someone didn't establish anything this year is bad: Chris Sharma climbed the most astonishing boulder problem in Magic Wood, flashed nearly everything on the Mello-Bloc-Festival... Don't forget the Brits, Spanish and French world class climber!!!

I am pretty sure Endless story was 2003, he is an amazing climber not saying he isn't, just didnt seem like this was his best year.

Toni isn't talking about "Die unendliche geschichte 1+2". He's talking about "Practice of the wild", a truly amazing line and a fantastic performance. The most inspiring piece of climbing I've ever seen.
