Marschner puts up Peace Corps (8C) and Cameroni follows suit

Kim Marschner reports on Insta that he has done the FA of Peace Corps (8C) in Valle Bavona and that Giuliano Cameroni did the 2nd ascent. It is a direct version to Fight Club (8B+) in Valle Bavona which both boulderers have also sent.

Kim, who won Euro 50 000 in Ninja Warriors in Germany 2021, has previously done six 8C's and one 9a. In 2018, at age 20, he was #18 in. Boulder World Cup.

Can you tell us more about the ascent?
My main goal was to try Fightclub that trip. The first session I had Giul tried already the straight version of it. The next day I got there I did Fightclub first go and tried the moves of the direct a bit also with Giul and Dave. After figuring out a different beta for the end because I am too little I climbed it second go from the start. Dave suggested the name Peace Corps as it is kind of the opposite of Fightclub because we had a super chill session with no Fightclub mode at all.

What about IFSC or Ninja competitions in 2023?
No comps or Ninja plans this season for me.
