Brooke Raboutou, who has qualified to Tokyo, has done Hungry Hungry Hippos 8A+ in @@Red Rock. "Whoohoo I was hungry for the hippos! Some weird but cool movement into a 5 star V9 makes for a nice climb! Was quite the adventure bringing the pup up the cactus filled hike, but she enjoyed seeing the canyon from above :)"

In total, the 19-year-old has now done 23 boulders 8A+ during the last year and she is #3 in the 8a ranking game.
