Bosi calls BoD solid 9A and harder than Alphane

William Bosi is the only climber who has repeated two 9A graded boulders. On Insta, he discusses and compares both with his hardest FA, Honey Badger (8C+). He says that the two 9A's repeats weren't at his absolute limit and that his FA of Honey Badger came with some luck and was on his absolute limit.

"Knowing this it makes me more confident that Honey Badger could be hard 8C+, Alphane soft 9A and Burden of Dreams solid 9A. Hopefully that made some sense 😂 and we can get more opinions soon!"
