She is getting a seriously impressive climbing CV.

I wonder what she could do if she projected a route properly ? 5 goes is very quick.

I wondered what she had been up to since Impact Day. Sounds like she has had to have a bit of recovery time. Well done.

In reply to UKC News; So good on her, she's really a talented one, excelling in many disciplines but i found her comment; ''I have done some other 8bs, but they were in Spain and Turkey, and grades aren't as soft in France.. '' bit inadequate cause being partially true, saying Spain or Turkey are soft graded is like saying in England always rain (an inaccuracy and disrespectful for the stiff graded areas in that countries).IMO
