9a dla Markovic, 8c flash dla Garnbret
Domen Skofic przekazuje nam na Facebooku świetne wieści.
"Dziś jest wyjątkowy dzień dla naszej ekipy!!! I @miiiinam (Mina Markovic) i @janja_garnbret zapisały się dzisiaj na kartach historii, robiąc 9a (Fabela pa la enmienda) oraz fleszując 8c (Rollito Sharma extension)! Gratualcje, dziewczyny, jesteście wyjątkowe i bardzo inspirujecie!"
Mina wygrała tegoroczny puchar świata, a Janja (16) zajęła w nim 7. miejsce, ale wzięła udział w tylko trzech etapach - w każdym z nich stanęła na podium. Była za to druga w mistrzostwach Europy. Wszyscy wspomnieni w tym artykule pochodzą ze Słowenii, będącej obecnie jednym z krajów prowadzących w rankingach wspinaczkowych, chociaż ma tylko około dwa miliony mieszkańców. Na liście wspinaczy roku 2015 stworzonej przez 8a Mina jest 2., Domen 8., a Janja - 12. Więcej informacji wkrótce.
