Stefano Ghisolfi repeats 4-Low (8C)

Stefano Ghisolfi, who the last two weeks has sent two 8Cโ€™s, has repeated Daniel Woodsโ€™ 4-Low (8C) in Valle Bavona. (c) Sara Grippo

โ€It was a quick ascent, tried it one day with Davide Zane and with the help and beta of Checco Berardino, I almost did it in one day and then came back yesterday, fell twice at the end end finally did it.โ€ (c) Sara Grippo

When will you be back on routes again and how do you compare the routes and boulders mental game?
Iโ€™ll be back in Cรฉรผse in may for The Raststaman Vibration (9b). For now I focused more on boulders not yet at my limit, to check different areas and climb a lot. With routes I usually focus more on hard projects at my limit and the mental game is much harder. When I feel ready to try something harder on boulders I'll hope on some 8C+ or maybe even 9A. The only exception was Gioia (8C+) that was much harder and almost my limit.
