Out of frustration Alex Khazanov flashes the 8a + / 8b Boulder Incubator in the Zillertal

The Israeli Alex Khazanov took the frustration of his performance at the World Climbing Championships in Innsbruck and flashed the Boulder Incubator (8a + / 8b) in the Zillertal.

In the overall IFSC World Cup 2018 occupied Alex the 12th place, at the World Championships in Innsbruck luck was not on his side. He missed the semi-finals and had to be content with 50th place. So it is understandable that the 23-year-old had some frustration energy in him, which he converted into transition energy in the Zillertal. Here is the video.
