Emelie Gearhardt does Walk the Line (8A+)

Emelie Gearhardt, who the over last two years has done roughly 20 boulders problems graded 8A and harder, reports on Instagram that she has sent Walk The Line (8A+) in Chironico.

Can you tell us more about this boulder problem?
I tried โ€žwalk the lineโ€œ many years ago for the first time but it felt really hard for me so I didnโ€™t try it again. In January weโ€˜ve been in Ticino for some days and I decided to give it another try after so many years. I was surprised because it felt pretty good and I was able to climb the stand start. So I was psyched to go back to Ticino to finish the sit start, and luckily [this trip] it went well!
