Fish Eye 8c onsight by Janja Garnbret
Charlotte Durif, has previously onsighted an 8c which, however, later was downgraded. Chris Sharma's Fisheye is a well confirmed 50 meter long 8c with almost 100 ascents in the 8a database. Pierre Délas from Fanatic Climbing was at the scene and has the full report including more pictures.
"40 meters off the deck, just under the last, fingery, boulder, which has caused many a dispiriting heartache with this slopy two-finger pocket which inspired the name of the route. After hesitating in the said boulder where she misreads a sequence, the Slovenian climbs back down to the half-rest below, then, helped by the cheers, finally powers through the last section and clips the chains! Despite her impressive ease, Janja admitted being fairly pumped!"
