Thanks for a great 2012

Thanks everybody who has recorded and star rated another 400 000 ascents during 2012 making it easier to find the best crags and climbs around the globe. Thanks also to everyone who has improved the data base, written and spell checked news and sent us tips for news etc etc. 8a is based on contributions from the community and we are always looking for more guys who can help out. Just spend some hours and we will send you an 8a La Sportiva T-shirt, [email protected]. We are also looking for more country specific translators. The next big thing is the great update of the 8a.nu topo App with a complete 8a scorecard feature. Later it will also be possible to get listed left to right topos for all the major crags in the world including GPS positioning. Merry X-mas and a Happy New Year :)
