Euro Trash 8A+ flash and an 8B by Brooke Raboutou

Brooke Raboutou, who was #3 in Salt Lake City, excels also outdoors by flashing her first 8A+, Euro Trash in Little Cottonwood Canyon (UT). "So psyched!! Still riding the high from the World Cup final and couldn’t resist climbing on what was supposed to be a rest day. Oops haha. So psyched to flash it!"

Later she did her seventh 8B during the last year, Euro Roof Low Low. "After the flash of the 12 I went for this one! Happy to also put it down in about 4 more tries! Great day with a fun group! Comps are so fun but outdoors...❤️"

In the 8a ranking game, the 20-year-old Olympian is #2. On Friday, she will compete in Speed in Salt Lake City and then on Saturday, there is a new Bouldering World Cup coming up. (c) Daniel Gajda
