Simone Tentori does Monkey Wedding (8C)
Simone Tentori, who earlier this summer has done two 8Cโ in Rocklands, finishes up by sending Monkey Wedding (8C). โLast day best day. Such a special way to conclude a 3-month trip in ZA. Special thanks to Siara and Ben for the support.โ (c) Benjamin Malherbe
On Instagram, he gives more details about his very last try on his long term project. โWith September, African spring came and temps started to rise a lot, very quickly. I found myself on the very last day of the trip, luckily on a crazy windy day. Besides the good condies, I was not feeling good at all. After a few bad tries and 2 splits, I started to process the idea of giving up.
But then I thought: 'Fuck it, I'm here, in paradise, with a chance to try hard on a freaking cool hard boulder. Let's enjoy that for a little bit more' I taped my fingers and completely erased any outcome scenario from my head. I pulled on from the start hold and I just climbed it.โ

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.
Outdoor bouldering isโฆ
