Infinite story (9a) finally repeated in Magic Wood

The Tyrolean Christ Rauch repeated the tripartite Never ending Story (9a) in the bouldering area Magic Wood.

Developed and first came the watered block Chris Sharma. He managed the inspection of the lower part, which is rated 8b + and in the meantime is repeated very often. So often, at least, as is the case with a boulder of this difficulty.

Extension with three bolts

Peter Würth attached further features to the boulder problem. At the end of the lower part, he clipped himself into the provided rope. This extension increases the level of difficulty of 8b + on 9a and creates a kind of hybrid between boulder and climbing route.

In October, Christof Rauch also managed the commission of the Infinite story (I + II + III = 9a). During his stay at Magic Wood, however, it was not the only on-the-spot visit that Tyrolean pride deserves. The day before he succeeded in the passage of Remembrance of things past (8b +). Five days after the celebration of Infinite story He then put up with Dark Matter (8b + / c) even better. Stop, there is more: Just one day after the onslaught of Dark Matter Christof also climbed the new boulder of Alexey Rubtsov in Calancatal Alpha Boulder (8b +) and Cold Smoke (8a) and another 8a. Ok, that's it.
