First 8c+ by Traversi
Carlo Traversi (20), who, 30 years after the FA, made the 2nd ascent of Trice, 8A+, and has bouldered as hard as 8B, has now turned his attention from bouldering to routes. The result is quite stunning, or what do you think about:
Friday - Simply read, first 8b
Saturday - Benign intervention, first 8c
Sunday - Girl talk, first 8c+. (It should be noted that Ethan Pringle also did it last week and put it in as an 8c.)

โI stopped focusing on competition bouldering after last yearโs World Cup in Prague, partly because I can already feel it on my body, especially in my shoulders. The modern competition style, with a lot of jumping from one hold to another, is very demanding for the shoulders.
