Sierra Blair does Captain Hook (8A+)

Sierra Blair has repeated Chris Sharmaโ€™s Captain Hook (8A+) in Oak Flats and here is the video. โ€First send post breakโ€ฆand possibly since 2003 pre-break haha.โ€

Can you tell us more about Captain Hook?
I saw Captain Hook for the first time when I was 11 years old and remember thinking it was impossible at the time. Last season I looked at Captain Hook and saw a hold broke. I put a few tries into the boulder and once again thought it was impossible (especially with the break). I made it a goal to send Captain Hook this season and was excited to get the boulder done in a few sessions. Itโ€™s definitely a very proud line at Oak Flat.
