Not more impressive IMO.

Both amazing achievements, but to me Shauna's return to the top level on rock as a mother is more notable than anything anyone does on a board.

Totally agree! I wonder whether Badger Cave is calling?

Is this the hardest grit problem by a British woman?

It was very much tongue in cheek.

Milk it is more impressive than anything on grit though.

at 8B+ you could argue it's the hardest grit problem done by anyone

Having a quick scan through the strong British females list, I don't think anyone has done 8A+ or 8B on grit yet. Does anyone know otherwise?

Michael Piccolaruaz has made a solo ascent of a line called Ganja in Zillertal. I think there's some dodgy old bolts in it, but it sounds like it's typically done as a trad route at 8a/+ ish. Who knows what it'd get grade wise for a solo but pokey 8a crack sounds like a pretty hardcore solo to me.

I guess this has been on the cards for a while, the most surprising thing is how easy she seems to have found it. Janja climbs Bugeleisen sit

Just give her the Olympic Gold now, so she can stop wasting time doing comps and get on with real climbing. She absolutely paths it.

Is she not meant to be training for the Olympics?
Get her of Burden

Presumably this was a recovery ride on a rest day...

Or the best pre-Olympic "flex" in climbing history.

Yeah, it only took half an hour out of her schedule, plenty of time for a lead session in the evening.

Shawn Rabatou also climbed Story of three Worlds twice in a session becuase he dabbed on the a tree the first time he climbed it.
