8C again by James Webb

James Webb has done the first repeat of Daniel Wood's Defying Gravity 8C in Thunder Ridge. "Yess! Felt so nice to connect with that first move. Such a heinous jump from one glassy rail to the next. What a strange problem.... and putting it all together may be one of the lowest percentage things i've ever done." In total, James has done five 8C's the last year and including 25 boulder 8B+ and three 8B's, he is #1 in the ranking game. James is also frequently using personal grades.
