Just before the Rock Master in Arco, Yuji Hirayama showed great form by doing the 7th(?) ascent of Noia, 8c+, at Andonno, Italy. Not content with this, he went on to Tenda, France, where he combined the Severino Scassa-routes Full metal techno, 8b/c, and Tecno, 8c/c+, to produce Techno metal, 8c+. Now, who said Yuji doesn´t have any imagination?
