World record day by Robinson!?

Paul Robinson keeps crushing everything that comes in his way. Yesterday, after a couple of restdays, he climbed New Base Line, 8B+ (originally given 8C by Zangerl), two 8B's (one 2:Go), two 8A+'s and one 8A. With both him and Tyler Landman in the Wood, we're guessing it's just a matter of time before the grand price, Practice of the wild, grade unknown but hard, is snatched by at least one of them. Check Paul's blog. If Paul does it he will probably overtake the #1 in the world ranking, Daniel Woods.
