Stefano Ghisolfi repeats 4-Low (8C)
Stefano Ghisolfi, who the last two weeks has sent two 8Cโs, has repeated Daniel Woodsโ 4-Low (8C) in Valle Bavona. (c) Sara Grippo
โIt 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?
Iโll 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.

Ondra flashes 3*8C in two weeks
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.
