Tudi Caroline Ciavaldini je v Oliani uspela v 8c+!

James Pearson sporoča da je njegova punca Caroline Ciavaldini v svojem tretjem poskusom uspela v smeri Mind Control 8c+ v Oliani. "Ker sem smer sam preplezal pred nekaj dnevi sem imel dobro predstavo o tažavah ki jo čakajo in sem se odločil da svoj dan počitka namenim temu da sem njen varovalec in ji tako omogočim najbolšo možnost uspeha. Uporabil sem novo vrv, Beal Joker 9.1mm in tako zmanjšal trenje. Do 5 ali 6 kompleta je plezala z eno vrvjo, na prvem počitku jo je odvrgla in preostanek smeri zlezla z drugo vrvjo, kar je razbremenilo trenje na vrhu smeri. Nikoli prej nisva uporabila 100m vrv!"(c) Francisco Taranto
