8B+ by Michael Piccolruaz (16)
Michael Piccolruaz has done Never ending story, 8B+ in Magic Woods. "Wow! A dream come true! After falling twice on the last hard move just because of a simple foot slip, I managed to climb the whole line. I was just super relieved and super happy holding the final top hold and I still can't believe that I was able to climb this awesome historical line.
It wasn't even my goal to try the whole line, but once I did the second part so easily and I knew that I climbed the first part quite fluently last year, I decided to try the whole boulder. And it turned out that it is possible =)" Last year he was #2 in two Euro Youth Boulder Cups (c) Alpenverein.it
