News, articles and videos on bouldering.
This Sunday we are going back to November of 2015, to La Sportiva Legends Only. That evening Janja Garnbret offered an incredible performance, climbing all 5 problems and winning way ahead of Anna Stöhr, Shauna Coxsey, Jule Wurm and Melissa Le Neve. We gonna see her topping the hardest problem of the night.
