Brooke Raboutou and her impressive Ticino ticklist | Video

In January, Brooke Raboutou stayed in Ticino and enjoyed the variety of boulders in the Swiss sun room. During her stay in Switzerland, she managed some difficult boulders, including Kings of Sonlerto (8a +), La Proue (8b), Iur (8b +) and Heritage (8b).

The American Brooke Raboutou proved once again during her stay in Ticino that she is an incredibly talented climber. So she drew the highball to start Kings of Sonlerto (8a +) and a few days later - probably as the first woman - the 8b boulder La Proue. In the further course of their trip followed Heritage (8b) and those of Giuliano Cameroni first climbed dream line lur (8b+). In a short video, the professional climber now shows her ascents of the four Ticino test pieces.
