Insomniac 8C+ by Drew Ruana

Drew Ruana reports on Insta that he has done the FA of Insomniac 8C+ at Lincoln Lake. It starts doing eight moves of Wheel of wolvo (8B+) followed by a good rest and then continuous through We Can Build You (8B+). "The first section is the most physically demanding part, sapping a lot of power before the end. The second half is a power endurance nightmare, making for a 30 move frenzy of hard moves with a heartbreaker at the end." (c) Alton Richardsson
