8a+ OS in Frankenjura by Matilda Sรถderlund

Matilda Sรถderlund has onsighted Amboss in Frankenjura, which might be the second female 8a+ onsight in Frankenjura after the one that Lynn Hill did on the route Simon back in 1992. Her trainer Dicki Korb from Cafe Kraft comments: "It is so nice to see, how Matilda climbs now. I'm very happy with her performance, cause we worked a lot on her climbing speed and her dynamic, and now she climbs so much faster and more efficient, and so I'm very happy for her. It was a perfect onsight, she just did everything right." As a matter of fact, it was just a spontaneous onsight and as it was mostly pockets, she mainly read the route on the go. In 2006, when Matilda was #6 in he world Championships, and before all her injuries, she onsighted three 8b's and flashed two 8b+'s.
