Michaela Kiersch does Netsuke (8B)
Michaela Kiersch, who last week sent seven 8A and harder boulders including a flash of Hineruage / Deep Red (8A), has visited Murgtal for the first time. During her solo trip she sent Netsuke (8B),
Broken bottles sit (7C+) and
Starlink (8A)
.
Can you tell us more about your solo mission and your crash pad logistics?
I was driving through the area and knew of a few boulders that I wanted to try. I shuffled my two big and one small organic pads myself from the parking and had a really fun solo day out!
Can you tell us more about Netsuke and how quickly you sent it?
The 8B suits me really well. None of the moves are too big and I use a lot of technical footwork in order to optimize my body position on the small crimps.
I had to work the moves one at a time because it was in the sun when I started. Maybe 5 real tries from the bottom. It took maybe like 1.5 hours.

Ondra flashes 3*8C in two weeks
โI stopped focusing on competition bouldering after last yearโs World Cup in Prague, partly because I can already feel it on my body, especially in my shoulders. The modern competition style, with a lot of jumping from one hold to another, is very demanding for the shoulders.
