First 8A by Leo Skinner (just 13)
Leo Skinner, who turned 13 two days ago, has done his first 8A, Butch Cassidy at Dinas Rock and it went down fast. "Three and a bit sessions and it went down in the wet. glad to get this done whilst I'm still young! stuck the bottom crux moves and power screamed through until the finish. out of nowhere!" Here is a video from Albarracin he edited some 10 months ago and his coach, Morgan Preece, they got the 8A on film.

Henning Wang got the last day action from Adam Ondra's tries on Neanderthal 9b, where he got very high up "Despite the conditions, (wet tufa, 20+ degrees, high humidity)," and after skipping many quickdraws did fall probably some 20 meters.

Henning Wang zachytil poslednรฝ deลˆ pokusovania Adama Ondru v ceste Neanderthal 9b. Adam v tejto dlhej vytrvalostnej stropovici zaznamenal dobrรฝ progres "...napriek podmienkam (pokrรก tufa, viac ako 20 stupลˆov, vysokรก vlhkosลฅ)..." a v tomto pokuse si po necvaknutรญ niekoฤพkรฝch expresiek zalietal cca 20 metrov.

Stefano Ghisolfi gets the Highpoint on the Project
Stefano Ghisolfi got the highpoint on the Project as a nice birthday present and in fact he could be called superior. In reality, the show and route could have been better as we did not see too much fight as it starts very easy in comparison to World Cup routes. Furthermore, the limited rest and possibly also the fact that conditions got worse due to the crowd, which warmed the place, made the second attempt mainly worse. The climber who has the highpoint each year Will get 1 000 euro. If you manage to top out, you get 5 000 euro. It seems impossible even if Adam Ondra will try later this spring.

Stefano Ghisolfi nyomta a legjobbat a  Projectre
Stefano Ghisolfi mรกszott a legtovรกbb a Stockholmi Projekten a megnyitรณ gรกlaestjรฉn. Igazรกn szรฉp szรผlinapi ajรกndรฉk (plรกne ha a borรญtรฉkot is megkapja mellรฉ), az Olasz rekord tehรกt felรกllรญtva. Volt mรฉg pรกr nagyobb nรฉv, mint Jorg Verhoeven, Magnus Midtbo, a jรณ รถreg Nalle รฉs a hรถlgyektล‘l a fiatal Kajsa Rosรฉn. A show azรฉrt nem รผtรถtte meg a vilรกgkupa szรญnvonalat, mivel egy nagyon kรถnnyลฑ รบton kezdtek a mรกszรณk, de ez a kรถnnyลฑ รบt รญgy is a fรผggล‘legesig 8a, ott egy szรฉp nagy ugrรกs, majd jรถhet a 8A+/B plafonboulder, ami pihenล‘ nรฉlkรผl belevezet az egyre nehezedล‘ vรฉgsล‘ kiszรกllรณ 8C boulderbe. A laikusok mรกr 10a-t emlegetnek... Kรฉt prรณbรกbรณl kellett a legjobbat kihozni a megnyitรณn, talรกn a tรถmeg miatti egyre melegedล‘ terem รฉs kevรฉs pihenล‘idล‘ is rรกsegรญtett, hogy elsล‘re mindenki jobbat mรกsszon. ร‰vrล‘l รฉvre aki a legjobbat teljesรญti majd megkapja az 1000 euro-t, a Top-รฉrt pedig jรกr a busรกs รถtรถs. Sokak szerint ez senkit sem fenyeget, hacsak Adam Ondra nem tervez errefelรฉ egy lรกtogatรกst a nyรกri Flatanger tripp elล‘tt. A szervezล‘k annyit รญgรฉrtek, a teremben van klรญma - le lehet hลฑteni, ha csak ez hiรกnyozna a sikerhez!!!
