Gio Placci makes quick work of The Story Of 2 Worlds and calls it 8B+
Gio Placci has made a quick ascent of The Story Of 2 Worlds (8C) in Cresciano, which in practice is a sit start to The Dagger. "8B+, after having done The Dagger, it took me just 2 hours to send the whole line, so Iโm sure it is not 8C."
Gio says that the left kneebar right at the start of 2 Worlds makes the intro movement significantly easier and prevents it from adding as much as it did previously in to The Dagger (8B+), which he says should now be considered 8B.
