8C and WC plans for Matt Fultz
Matt Fultz has after 13 8B+' done his first 8C by the FA of The Expanse in Joe's Valley. Last week he won both the qually and semi in the USA bouldering nationals and was #4 in the final. More info at his Instagram (c) Kieran Hadley
"It took me about 6 sessions in total. Iโve never competed in a World Cup, but Iโm planning on doing Vail and the world championships in Austria this year!"
What is interesting is that the the 26 year old has had an almost continuous progress for eight straight years. In the 8a ranking game, the 183 cm and 78 kg, is #7.
