Another confirmed downgrade: Jungle Speed drops to 8c+

Stefano Carnati has done Jungle Speed in Siurana and the 18-year-old confirms previous personal downgradings to 8c+. The first 8c+ suggestion was made by Gabri Moroni in 2012 and since then 8a has reported it as 9a (8c+). Several years ago, 8a said that there will be many down grades to come in the area based on the fact that so many climbers did their first 9a there or just did it very quickly. Next in line for confirmed downgradings: Era Vella and Esclatamasters?
