jules nicouleau is on sending train in Fontainebleau just before the French Championship this weekend, having done two 8B's and his first two 8B+'; Kheops Assis and Gecko assis. (c) Clément Lechaptois. In 2016, he was #2 in the European Youth Championship and last year he did his first two 8B's How can you explain your recent progress? I'm actually training for outdoor bouldering and for competitions. The french championships is this weekend and I have tried to be in best shape possible. I climb a loot! I'm not following a real preparation. I'm doing a little bit of board session and that's all. I climb on hard boulders and that's training me. Being in shape for the competition also mean that I'm in shape for rock. I hope to be selected for the World Cup and for the World Championship in Innsbruck. With the good conditions in the forest I decided to spend my last week before the comp by taking as much pleasure as I can, hanging out in the forest trying some hard boulders with friends!"
