Robinson on FA spree in South Africa

American Paul Robinson has been part of a group of boulderers establishing a new area near Rocklands in South Africa.

Robinson reported on 8a.nu that he made 35 first ascents  up to 8C (V15) at the newly developed Three Corners area: “First of all this line was an amazing experience to climb on. What a beautiful boulder in such an incredible place. In the beginning I thought 8B+, but then really thought about it more and i think it is more 8C. It feels harder than some other 8cs I have done, 16 moves out this cave on great rock. Goodbye South Africa, it has been an amazing trip in my favourite place in the whole world. Great times with great friends. Thanks all, onward to Brazil.”
