19 boulders 8A and harder in three weeks by Baptiste Ometz (16)

Baptiste Ometz has during the last two weeks done six boulder 8B and harder and counting three weeks, we are talking 19 boulders 8A and harder. The 16 year old and 180 cm did his first 8B when he was 11 years old. The reason for the rather slow progress until 2014 are numerous injuries like broken wrist, toe problems and meniscus. Since February he has been OK bouldering four times a week. In 2013, he won one Euro Boulder Cup and in 2014, he become the European Boulder Champion.
