First 8A+ by Giorgia Tesio (14)

Giorgia Tesio has done her first 8A+, Excalibur sit in Varazze which was 8A before a hold broke. Here is the impressive video made by Christian Core. Last year, being 12, she did her first two 8A's and being 12, she also flashed her first 8a route. Great video portrait. Picture by Christian Core: "It's motivating to see how her father is bringing her training to many gyms and trying the boulders, sometimes he climbs too but other times just wating, in the cold and the wind. All the family, mother and sister looks as a motivated team. Giorgia is very strong in the bouldering, she's discovering her limits right now, I'm sure she can do more... Stefano Ghisolfi, WC winner in 2014, did it the same day and commented that Gioriga was much stronger: "She did it very easily. I did the boulder three years ago and now it is harder because a hold broke, I had to fight because it is very hard. She impressed me, she knew all the moves perfectly, I don't know how long she tried it but I don't think too much, I had to work all day to do the new version.
