8C bouldering IS in fashion these days! After 7 days in Cresciano, Chris Sharma managed to make the 4th ascent of Fred Nicole´s 22 move-monster Dreamtime. After a couple of slow seasons, media, including ourselves, were beginning to write Sharma off as an international climbing superstar. Well, let´s just say we weren´t entirely correct in our analysis… Last season Sharma opened Realization, 9a+, at Ceüse, this year he´s onsighted one 8b+ and three 8b´s, and now bouldered 8C. The way we see it, Sharma and Graham are in a league on their own when it comes to mastering the very different games of bouldering, redpointing and onsighting on a World level.
