First Repeat Of 20+ Year-Old 5.14 By Cody Roth

More V14s For Paul Robinson In Fontainebleau

Posted January 3, 2011 at 12:24 pm · Comments { 0 } ·

Building on the strong start to his time in Fontainebluea, France, Paul Robinson added a couple more V14s to his 8a scorecard over the past few days with fast repeats of Gecko Assis and Kheops Assis.  The latter problem was sent over the course of a single session and only a few tries after completing the V13 stand start according to 27 Crags.
