8A by Thomasina Pidgeon (39) again

Thomasina Pidgeon has done her second 8A this year, Supersupernova in Magic Wood. "Never thought I'd try this but when the forest is wet and everyone else is psyched.... Surprisingly fun." In total, the 39-year-old has done 37 boulders 8A and harder, the last 8A+ out of which she did when she was 37. In the last four years, she has actively competed in the Boulder World Cup where she got her best result, 29th place this year in Toronto. In the picture by Axel Perschman from 2013, you can see also her daughter helping out with the crashpad.
