Bosi is live-streaming BoD 9A again
After the session is over, Will actually start trying a completely new beta that might be easier and then he continues like an hour resting max 3-4 minutes during the 2+ hours session. On the other hand, he is doing such good links on the original beta that he should be able to do it in a couple of more sessions. In the end, it seems anyhow that his new beta is better although it makes the last dyno a bit harder.
Being asked which is the hardest boulder he has tried, "Terranova is potentially as hard as Burden of Dreams". Adam Ondra put up Terranova (8C+) in 2011 and Will recently tried it.
The live-streaming is like a tutorial on how to climb hard and in the end, he has answered 20 questions which his girlfriend reads out from the streaming. The streaming is over 2 hours and there is actually interesting all the way, also thanks to his girlfriend who is moderating the show in a very nice way. This is the new standard of live-streaming bouldering.
