Ticino vs. Fontainebleau 1-0

Jimmy Webb repeatedly visited the French bouldering area Fontainebleau to crack heavy boulders. But the conditions thwarted his plans. Thank God there is Ticino, where conditions are often good in the winter months.

Jimmy Webb and his buddies turned their backs on Fontainebleau and drove into the sunny Tessin, where they are the local Giuliano Cameroni joined. The result is numerous first ascents and repetitions of heavy lines. More on this in the following video.
