Blimp roof 8A+ by Courtney Arnold

Courtney Arnold has done her fifth 8A+, Blimp roof in New World. The 22-year-old only needed three sessions to take it down and she is #11 in the female ranking game. Interesting is that she only started climbing in 2016 and it was not until 2019 she begun climbing outdoors.

"Blimp is probably the coolest thing Iโ€™ve done so far. Sick roof moves lead to a crazy foot lead to get onto the head wall and then there are some awesome hero moves to the top. Another all-star line by Matt. Wouldnโ€™t have been able to do it without the support from good friends!"

What is next?
Iโ€™m not too sure what is next yet. I suppose just trying to refine my roof climbing skills this summer in Flagstaff.
