8B again by Alex Puccio

In the 8a ranking game, the runner up in the last world championship is #25 even if she did go through knee surgery this spring. (c) Chris Motta "This Boulder was an epic for me! It took me longer than any other climb I have done to date!! This was my 8th day on in over 6 year period. I fell off the last move of this long boulder my first day on it all the ways till I sent it. So so psyched to put this one to rest!!! ๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜„๐Ÿ˜„ thank you for all the support Joel and everyone that came to this Boulder with me! ๐Ÿ‘Š๐Ÿ‘Š๐Ÿ˜„
