Vojta Trojan does Power of now direct (8C)

Vojta Trojan, with four 8B+โ€™ and two 9a+โ€™ under his belt, has repeated Simon Lorenziโ€™s Power of now direct (8C) in Magic Wood.

Can you tell us more about the ascent?
Took a short trip to Magic Wood to recharge a bit in the middle of the busy setting season. Managed to tick off a bunch of easier classics that had been on my list for a while, and also returned to the direct start of Power of Now. I climbed the original line last year and never felt much need to come back, as the direct start shares most of the climbing and seemed almost like the same boulder. But after some time I was happy to return and spend some time on this amazing moves once again.
