Kajsa Rosén (18) - A new star in the making

Kajsa Rosén, who did her first 8c and flashed an 8b+ last week, has done Mind Control 8c (+) and onsighted T-1 Full Equipe in Oliana. There is only a handful of female who have onsighted at this level before. "What to do next? Still suprising myself here in Oliana." Last year, the 18-year-old was #9 and #10 in the last two Lead World Cups she did. loic Timmermans, who is still ahead of Kajsa with one 9a, reachead out to 8a with a nice reflection. "Kasja is crushing all the routes she's trying like nothing. I was even more impressed when she told me she did Mind control without getting pumped. I think she has a good attitude to. Not taking things too seriously, just climbing and see what happens.
