Floatin 8C+ by Ryuichi Murai
Ryuichi Murai, who previously has done two 8C+ FAs, has done one more by Launch Pad Project, which he named Floatin, after nine days of projecting. His Insta video shows the amazing start. "In the process of completion, struggled with many physical and mental factors.. severe finger skin damage from sharp granite, 0โ cold condition, two low-probability savage cruxes..etc."
Did you do any specific och replica training?
I mainly trained for the first move (the crux). For example, campusing with beastmakers micros and pinch blocks.
