Steppenwolf 8B by Molly Thompson-Smith

Molly Thompson-Smith has done her third 8B in 2021, Steppenwolf in Magic Wood. Interestingly, all her 8B's she has done on her second session. Video on her Insta, where she comments. "Unfortunately I hurt my pulley on this go so that could be the end of my climbing here๐Ÿฅฒ"

On which hold did you get that pulley injury and how were you able to continue?
I think it was after I matched the second holdโ€ฆ I caught the third one really badly on that try but somehow stayed on. Then there was a lot of intense full crimping afterwards.
