Michaela Kiersch flashes Mind Stream (8A+)
Michaela Kiersch has during a 27 degrees afternoon in Smugglers' Notch flashed Mind Stream (8A+) and sent
The Impossible Sit (8A) as well as May it Be SDS (8A).
How did you prepare for the flash?
Mindstream is basically 3 moves so it was not hard to know the beta and give a good flash attempt.
Are you going back to live in Innsbruck?
Letโs see. Back in the US for July and August!
Are you full time professional climber?
Full time rock climber! I quit my job in October before moving to Europe. Iโm not back long enough to get another.

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.
