The vlog of Austrian climber Jakob Schubert and his recent bouldering trip to Red Rocks, USA, with Nicolai Uznik and Michael Piccolruaz and his attempts to repeats Sleepwalker, the 8C+ boudler problem put up by Jimmy Webb.
Jakob Schubert is used to setting himself goals and achieving them. The 31-year-old Austrian is one of the world’s strongest climbers, in competitions he’s been crowned Lead World champion a staggering three times, from the first Olympic Games in Tokyo he took home silver, outdoors he’s redpointed up to 9b+, bouldered up to 8C in just a few hours and even flashed 8B+. His obvious next level is an 8C+ boulder, and a recent trip to Red Rocks in the USA with Nicolai Uznik and Michael Piccolruaz provided the opportunity to try his hardest yet, Jimmy Webb’s 8C+ Sleepwalker. Check out the joys and frustrations of investing days of effort into just one small set of moves.
