8A+ (B) by Caroline Sinno in Font
Caroline Sinno, who did her first 8B in Fontainebleau this spring, has done her long time project La cicatrice de l'ohm 8B+ (B). Here is her progress report from last October and her success comments.
"My biggest fight in Font, it was more of a mental thing in the end. Very very pleased to have put a lot of dedication, training and hard work into this! It was nice to rediscover a forgotten line that wasn't climbed since it was opened roughly 10 years ago. It was put up at 8b/+ trav grade by Arnaud Ceintre but I did the natural exit of the line which makes it a real boulder problem around 8A+/B I think.
Otherwise if you are willing to try it please be respectful of nature and brush your tick marks!! I found the line pasted with chalk. I don't want it to become like les beaux quartiers."

Ondra flashes 3*8C in two weeks
โI stopped focusing on competition bouldering after last yearโs World Cup in Prague, partly because I can already feel it on my body, especially in my shoulders. The modern competition style, with a lot of jumping from one hold to another, is very demanding for the shoulders.
