Fourth 8c+ in RRG by Michaela Kiersch
Michaela Kiersch has done her fourth 8c+ in Red River Gorge the last year, 24 Carat, which took some 4-5 weekends. The full time university student, who plans to graduate this year, seems to every other weekend make the seven hour trip from Chicago to challenge some of the best sand stone routes in the world. (c) Leslay Ladlad "So excited to finally put this one away!!!! It was a rollercoaster of emotions between falling low and falling high. I try to take it in stride but it's not always easy to remain open minded. Every climb is a learning experience, and in the end it was the go that started with Mariah Carey that got me to the top!"

Paul Robinson upgrades to 8B+
Paul Robinson has done House of Doom in Hueco Tanks suggesting an upgrade to 8B+ of this problem Daniel Woods put up in 2011. "Great addition Daniel! This thing is so much harder than any other 8B+ on the mountain!" It is very important to have guys like Paul Robinson and Adam Ondra who actually dare to upgrade. There are so many super lines waiting to get more traffic if just somebody would care to upgrade them.

Pioneering the Uncharted life is our Lifestyle
Paul Robinson presents the Uncharted lines quality film about being a pioneer and his lifestyle which he shares with guys like Jimmy Webb, Daniel Woods, Chris Sharma and Niky Ceria, featured in the one hour film. Jimmy Webb gets the last word and sums up, "Once it is done, you are satisfied for just that moment, just that small amount of time and shortly after, you find yourself thinking, - That was sick but what is next! And that is just how we are, what we do. I don't think that will ever change."

The Lead European Championship starts in Italy 30/6 and in the final, the max time will be six minutes instead of previous eight minutes. Even with eight minutes in the World Cup in 2016, the females were sometimes timed out or were often forced to climb the last moves very fast, which made them fall. With a change to six minutes in the final, it is about time for Garnbret, Verhoeven, Rรถck, Markovic, Kim and others who want to be on the podium to change climbing style. In practice, this will mean no more hanging around, trying different beta and chalking. Right from the start they need to climb fast to save time for the more difficult finish. The other change of rules is that there will not be 4+ minutes in the boulder finals but instead a maximum time of four minutes. In practice this also means that the best boulderer should focus slightly more on endurance in their training for the Boulder WC 2017. IFSC reports that the rules handbook 2017 will be released very soon.

Tried on one of our last days last trip and finished it off first day, first thing this trip. My tips are still healing so psyched I was able to do this one with a taped up finger. :)"
