The Black Diamond Journal reports that Liuyong Bang did the 2nd ascent of Spicy Noodle in Yangshuo, China. Spicy Noodle was first done by Chris Sharma last year at 5.14b however a key hold broke raising the grade to 5.14c.
Joe Kinder reports on his blog that he did the FA of Waka Flocka, a possible 5.14b he bolted in Rifle, CO after relocating to the Western Slope last month. Kinder also repeated Livin’ The Dream, a proposed 5.14b extension to Living In Fear (5.13d) first done a couple of weeks ago by Jonathan Siegrist.
Daniel Woods took down another hard project at Mt. Evans, CO’s Lincoln Lake the other day with his FA of the so-called “Big Wall” project. Woods registered the new boulder on his 8a scorecard as Let The Right One In at a proposed grade of V14 calling it “one of the best I have done”.
Thanks for the update. This is scary all around. Especially the video.
Yeah, the video is almost sickening.
