Giacomo Raimondi makes the first repeat of Nim (8C)

Giacomo Raimondi has done the second ascent of Christian Coreโ€™s Nim (8C) in Varazze, which was put up some 20 years ago. โ€The send happened quite fast but I knew very well the first part of the boulder because it is common with my first 8B+.โ€

Do you know if there are more Core FAโ€™s still unrepeated?
Last year, I did Bunjil (8B) and Majinbu (8B) which also were second ascents. There are still a lot of unrepeated boulders from Christian and I think that they are not so much repeated because some of them are really hard and not that cool and finding good condition it's really difficult.
