Australian boulderer Sam Edwards has repeated The Island, Dave Graham's Font 8c problem in Fontainebleau.

Sam has registered his ascent on bleau.info and there is also a news item on 8a.nu.

Sam is the third person to complete the problem, after Dave Graham and Finnish power-house Nalle Hukkataival.

The Island features as one of the top boulder problems in Tyler Landman's forthcoming UKC Bouldering 2008 article, appearing on the site next week - watch this space.

I hope there'll be some recommendations for all of us punters out here - 8c is perhaps a touch hard for me to aspire to.
