Kim Marschner makes another repeat of Child of Hell

Kim Marschner has sent Child of Hell (8C) in Gottardo / Gotthardpass. "I tried Child of Hell for the first time last year and came super close in my second session. I fell at the last move because of a foot slip which felt easy to me trying it with the rope. This year after one week of being sick I tried it again on my second day bouldering. I felt much weaker than last year and couldn’t do one move on the rope. Anyways, I gave it a go from the start and surprisingly climbed it on my second try that day.”

What is coming up next?
Magic Wood in one week. But more like vacation with friends. Maybe if the temps are good I will try something hard but no ambitions. And then three weeks surfing in Ireland 🤙🏻
