8B and 8A+ again by Alex Puccio

Alex Puccio continues to deliver in Magic Wood by doing Pura Vida 8A+ and One Summer in Paradise 8B. "Felt as hard for me as Riverbed. Really nice crimps... except I REALLY dislike the end of this boulder! Fell off the last moves once today and then did it second attempt of the day. Second day trying it." (c) Joel Zerr During the last month, the 28 year old has won both Adidas Rock Star and Arco Rock Master as well as having done four boulders in between 8A+ and 8B+!
