Flip Flopera (8B) by Shauna Coxsey
Shauna Coxsey, who just over one year ago gave birth, reports with an Insta video that she has done Flip Flopera (8B) at the bowderstone. This was done on her second session whilst Shauna was filming the top 50 7th Grade boulders in the UK which will be appearing on her YouTube shortly! (c) Ryan Balharry
UKC has the full-length interview with Shauna who in between 2014 and 2017 won 11 World Cups. In the same period, she also did three 8B's and one 8B+.
"It feels so good! I guess I never really knew what to expect from my climbing during my postpartum journey. I knew I really wanted to be pushing into the hard grades again, but I had no idea what my recovery from pregnancy and birth would be like, plus having double knee surgery when Frankie was 6 months old."
