Cicada Jenerik (10) sends her age

On Dec, 4th, at the Happy Boulders in Bishop, CA, Cicada Jenerik sent Lowrider, 7C/+ (V10) at 10 years old. As far as we know no-one else has ever bouldered their age and no other 10 year old has come close to a V10. Peter Mortimer (Front Range Freaks) filmed the send for his upcoming movie "Return to Sender" Cicada worked the moves on Friday the 3rd, but didn't feel reved up enough to really go for it. The temperature was really cold. She went back on Saturday the 4th and sent it within a dozen or so attempts. 'Lowrider' is the extension to 'Cholos' which Cicada sent on November 13, 2004 Bouldering her age has been one of her primary goals since she was 7, needless to say she's rather stoked. Check out her gallery.
