Camilla Moroni makes quick work of The Traphouse 8B (+)
How does this line differ from the 8A+ variation you did last week?
There are two more moves on underclings to reach the start holds of Traphouse raccourci. It’s like a low start. I climbed the boulder with the Brooke’s beta which consists of jamming one finger in a little crack, I chose my middle finger.
What are your winter plans?
Just training. I’m mainly focused on Olympic qualification and I will train all winter for this.
