Phallus 8A+ by Alex Puccio

Alex Puccio has done Phallus 8A+ in Boulder, meaning she has done ten 8A+ and harder since last month. "Nice boulder! Maybe a little soft for V12 but a good climb. I did the 1 move higher start back in 2013 and don’t really know why I never tried the slightly lower start. Lol!"

The picture is from A New Hope 8A+ which, the runner-up in the World Champion in 2014, just published a video from on her Insta. Alex is #1, as she has been more or less the last seven years, in the 8a ranking game and in total, she has done 112 boulders 8A+ and harder.
