Umetnost 9a by Jernej Kruder

Jernej Kruder, bouldering World Cup winner in 2018, has done Umetnost 9a in Ter. "It was a long process due to very hot temps. I was already super close after a few sessions, but it was always too hot or humid. It was an old aid route rebolted by Rajko Zajc and FA by Domen Skofic few weeks ago."

So how come you did not go to Briancon and what about the Olympic qualification in Moscow?
I think one competition does not make a difference for me this year and I rather spend time outdoors. If Moscow will happen, I attend to go there.

If Moscow will not happen, the Slovenian will get the Olympic ticket as he was #16 in the Combined World Champion. If there will be a Euro Olympic qualification, the #1 ranked, excluding already qualified athletes and all athleyesfrom Italy, Germany and France who have reached max quota, will qualify to Tokyo. In other words, Kruder could make it as #9 if he has Ondra, Schubert, Mawem brothers, Ghisolfi, Hojer, Lopez and Megos in front of him.

โ€I stopped focusing on competition bouldering after last yearโ€™s 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. Outdoor bouldering isโ€ฆ
