At the beginning of the year, the reigning lead world champion and Olympic bronze medal winner Jakob Schubert paid a visit to Ticino. This video shows the ascent of three difficult boulders.

It was a short trip Jakob Schubert undertook with his friends. Despite the limited time, Jakob presented a considerable ticklist (LACRUX reported). Schubert now shows the ascent of the famous boulder in two separate videos Primitive (8c) Vecchio Leone (8b) and The Kingdom (8b +).
