8A+ FA by Isabelle Faus

Isabelle Faus has done the FA of Butterfly 8A+ which makes her the new female leader of the ranking game. "Really psyched, this one is amazing, on the newer boulder we've been going to up above Survival of the fittest... Do any other girls put boulders up?" Alex Puccio had been the 8a ranking game leader for more than five years but was out of game this summer due to a knee surgery. Alex is the first female who did an 8A+ FA and Isabelle is probably the second in the world.
