Just a few days ago, the American boulderer Jimmy Webb announced the ascent of Kintsugi, an 8c boulder in Red Rocks, Nevada. In an interview with EpicTV, Jimmy talks about his next big project in Fontainebleau and his finger injury, which kept him from climbing for a long time. No, he didn't get the injury while bouldering, but rather while doing a rope swing.
