Jakob Schubert flashes The Never Ending Story (8b +) and other 8-piece boulder

The Austrian Jakob Schubert gets the most out of a two-day trip to the Magic Wood. Despite the less than ideal conditions, he flashes The Never Ending Story (8b +), Voigas (8a), Octopussy (8a) and Jack's Broken Heart (8a) and climbs two more 8b + boulders and 2 x 8a +.

We already have that Ticklists of the Russian Vadim Timonov or the Japanese Ryuichi Murai reports that are very impressive. What is remarkable is the ticklist of Jakob Schubert not just the sheer number of heavy boulders that he climbs, but the flash walk on the Magic Wood classic The Never Ending Story (8b +).

Jakob Schubert, for his part, already climbed a boulder in this degree flash in 2018: Catalan Witness the Fitness in the Cova de l'Ocell. The Austrian proves with his Magic Wood-Trip once again its outstanding performance on the rock.
