Gu is back :-)

Guntram Jรถrg has recorded 43 FA boulders 7C to 8A+. "I stopped with 8a about a year ago when I was starting to do a lot of first ascents and I couldn't say the exact gradings anymore. I had the feeling that a new boulder doesn't get worth enough compared to a hard repeat." More grading thoughts by Gu which are in line with the new news policy of 8a. Gu' account has been upgraded so he can report himself from his lifelong road trip exploring the rock. FA picture by Dominik Hadwiger. Baboonmaster.com
