8b OS by Laura Rogora (15) again
Laura Rogora has onsighted her fourth 8b, Bella Lu in Collepardo. On the same day she also made the FA of Super crack 8c. The 15-year-old is #1 in the 8a female ranking game and when it comes to onsights, she is #7 among the guys.
What goes through your mind while onsighting?
I do not know. When I feel tired I try to climb speedly without thinking about what I am doing because I only want to reach the next hold.
In the last two years, she has won the Italian Championship in both Bouldering and Lead categories and the amazing thing is that she trains in a not so big bouldering gym.

Ondra flashes 3*8C in two weeks
