Yeah, she appears to be climbing up the ranks quickly.

I mean

Beaming with pride, Shawn revealed in a Magnus Midtbø video that his sister had come close to sending Box Therapy (8C+) in a day!

That is crazy. Too bad Olympia is coming up again next year so she will probably be to focused on comp performance until then. But maybe afterwards those crazy strong comp climbers will give rock a bit more priority.

She was already sending double-digit boulders at age 9, and to date, has sent multiple V14 boulders

Legitimately just absurd.
