8b onsight again by Laura Rogora (15)
Laura Rogora has onsighted her third 8b, Dragon in Gole del melfa. The 15-year-old is actually #11 in the 8a onsight ranking game. (c) Sofia Mariano
"Dragon is divided in two halves. The first part is an hard boulder followed by a pretty good rest and a very beautiful and technical groove on small holds. When I did the first boulder I understood that the hardest part was done. I had only to keep calm until the chain. When I exit from the groove and I hold the last good holds I felt so excited!!
I train 5 times per week. 3 times in my bouldergym and in the weekend I go outdoor. In 2017 I would like to try some hard routes (I don't know where yet) and naturally continue competing. Naturally I am very happy that climbing got a place in the olympic games. Our sport is fantastic and it is fair that now it is an Olympic sport. I admit that I am not very happy about the format."

โI stopped focusing on competition bouldering after last yearโs World Cup in Prague, partly because I can already feel it on my body, especially in my shoulders. The modern competition style, with a lot of jumping from one hold to another, is very demanding for the shoulders.
