He also repeated Jimmy's La Rustica last week which I think is 8C now,

Love Niky just going out on his own and doing all this stuff with no fanfare and cheerleaders.
the tension at 40s in that vid, and the casual way he holds the position to spot the feet at 55s, is just mental.

In the FA video Jimmy Webb gets some good Elvis leg on the top slab. Good to know that even the best suffer a bit of a gibber now and then.

Slab top out from about 4.20. Full FA from 3.30.

No Jimmy originally gave La Rustica 8B+ I think.
Not a significant repeat but significant FA by Jakob doing the direct finish to Force Tranquille in Magic Woods, sorry if this has been mentioned already.

Good video that one of Webb.
I particularly like the soundtrack, the fact that he no longer wears an anklet and that he uses the word "anticlimatic".

Barrows warmed up on this in the mist whilst we were there, but I fell off. 8a+ is probably fair.
Either, way is this the hardest onsight by a Brit? Am I right in remembering that Ros flashed Face du Rat?

Molly onsighted 8b this past summer (something near Innsbruck looking at her 8a account)
Interesting that Hazel gave Donkey Kong Ext 8a+ but labelled Pig in the Roof 8b in her pic. I thought Pig was easier than DK... Both seemed to make sense at bottom end 8b in the context of others in Leonidio (I.e. could easily be 8a+)

Weird that you and Hazel might have different opinions on gtades...abarro81 said:
It sounds like Akira has had a couple of repeats: https://www.instagram.com/p/CH52khijvz7/
It seems the controversy continues as it sounds like some holds have broken in the initial boulder problem taking it from 8B to 7C (says Fred).
