yes! perfect conditions today and a mega fight to haul my ass up through the second crux through those letters. perfect conditions today. for sure the hardest I have tried being so close to fall off for several moves, but somehow not falling off. Thanks Graeme for encouraging me to give the last try from the ground and not from sitting in the rope :) probably not the hardest of the hardest 8b around, but for me harder than the other long established 8b in the valley (Hopp oder Flopp) so I think the grade is justified. (note to self Had to tweak my beta one last time. After the hardest move, i. e. bringing the left hand into the undercling/sidepull raise the left leg to the 8cm higher foothold and only then go with the right hand to the sloper)
