Adam Ondra did the FA of Change 9b+ exactly four years ago in Flatanger and indeed it changed the scene. Flatanger has since become one of the most famous crags in the world and it is also the crag with the most hard core routes in the world. For Adam it has become like his second home and he has put up eleven 9a and harder routes in this extraordinary beautiful climbing paradise. Here is the short video from Petr Pavlíček that will make you scream almost as loud as Adam does failing and doing the 8B+ Boulder captured in the picture. Full length video available here.

Charles "Mowgli" Albert, who stopped using climbing shoes four years ago, has done Gecko Assis 8B+. Previoulsy he has done one 8C, which he thinks is 8B+ without shoes. He has also done a direct version of Le pied à coulisse, originally an 8C+, for which he also suggested 8B+ if done barefoot. Interestingly, with shoes his direct version is at least a 9A. The 20-year-old has said that the biggest problem with climbing without shoes is that you have to rest more in order for toe skin to recover.
