Simone Tentori ticks Deep Fake (8C+)

Simone Tentori, who sent his first 8C+ last year and did three 8C’s in December, has completed Deep Fake (8C+) in Brione. ”All moves in the first session but then very slow progress with no/very little improvement day after day. Unexpected ascent on my 10th? session. It felt very hard to suggest a difficulty but felt harder than the 8C's I ve done in the previous months.” (c) Martin Svec

Can you tell us more about the ascent?
After my recent sends, I didn't feel the need to chase anything else. My time in Ticino was close to an end and my mind was already drifting toward the upcoming trip to the US with Siara Fabbri. I felt satisfied and ready to take a little brake from hard projects.

In between packing and seeing friends I had one last half day in Brione and I was not sure what to do. In the end I thought 'fuck it, let's go to Deep, worst case it's good training'

I already had 10ish sessions on it, but I wasn't feeling close at all. During our very first sesh, Jek Raimondi and I could solve all the moves, but then we got stuck, with so many days similar to each other. We kept repeating moves but we could not manage the needed links to start thinking about proper send goes. Unfortunately Jek couldn't join me on Saturday, but when I showed up at the roof I had the pleasant surprise of seeing again Martin Svec (after almost 7 years!) and meeting Jana Svecova for the first time. Very good vibes, psyched to try hard and zero press.
