Two 8a onsight by Andrea Chelleris (12)

Andrea Chelleris, who did his first 9a last month, has onsighted his first two 8aโ€™s. Amazingly, the 148 cm tall says there were no real difficult moves and they were not far apart. More pics at his Insta

โ€ The first 8a is Herzklopfen and the second 8a is Herzklopfen/Zeitgeist in Landro, crag Franchi. The first 3 bolts are the same and easy (6c) with physical movements. The upper part is hard with technical movements. Both routes are bolted by Hannes Pfeifhofer.โ€
