8B (+) by Simon Parton
Simon Parton has done his first 8B (+), Terre de sienne in Hueco Tanks. "I was very surprised at how close I actually came to flashing it. So I rested. Got back on pulled to the first razor crimp then quickly popped to the second, screamed probably as loud as i ever have, then topped it out." As a comment he explained that his succesful training since August has paid off.
