Graham on 8C missions to get a 9A

Dave Graham, the one who has put up the most hard core boulders in the world, has found a mega 8C project in Fionnay where you can add a possible 8C direct start making it a potential 9A. Extremely bad weather has created more rest and motivation than ever and Dave feels in very good shape. (c) < href="http://www.fredmoix.com/"target="_blank">Fred Moix "Working on these amazing projects, 8C rigs out of which one has a 9A start. It is incredible! We have tried so many hard boulders we were very close on but could not try more cuz they just get wet. The weather is brutally f***ed haha. It is so bad... everything is soaked again Waiting for them to dry up Graham yesterday opened, Taste The Rainbow 8B in Trient and an escape is also some 8C's near Verbier.
