Whiplash 8C by Vadim Timonov

Vadim Timonov has repeated Alexey Rubtsov's Whiplash 8C in Lietlahti Park. "This is a sit-down start to an 8B/+. After I did the first part, it took me four attempts to get through it entirely. But I did everything on different days since the boulder loads the biceps very much."

Next Friday, Vadim will compete in the World Championship qualification in Mosow.

How come you chose outdoors as part of your preparation for the world championship?
No, this is not my preparation. It was my last outdoor session before the world championship. I just don't want to waste perfect weather🤣. Our season is short and every such day is valuable.
