Dreamtime 8C by Jernej Kruder

Jernej Kruder, winner of the World Cup in 2018, has done his fourth 8C, Dreamtime in Cresciano. "On the first few sessions already falling from the last move. I can't believe I needed more than 16 days for this one. Low percentage moves made it difficult for me, even though they didn't feel too hard. Dream line *****." The Slovenian got an invitation to the Toulouse Olympic qualification some two weeks ago. Due to that IFSC changed one rule and that the Japan Federation has sued IFSC, it is no longer certain if he can go. IFSC has officially said they have "freezed" the invitations. What makes the situation really bad on Kruder's side is that he decided to skip the last WC as he had, based on the original rules, calculated that he already had secured him a spot to Toulouse.
