Giuliano Cameroni: Iur's dream line first arrived in Cresciano

The young Ticino Giuliano Cameroni continues his on-the-go-pace from last year. Seven boulders in eighth grade Giuliano could add to his tick list since January. One of the most beautiful lines is the first ascent of the compression boulder lur (8b +).

Among the heavy lines that Giuliano Cameroni has scored since the beginning of the year are familiar names like Mithril sit, La proute or La natura va sit, The 21 year old is especially proud of the first ascent of the beautiful line lur  (8b +) to be in Cresciano. The line was discovered or climbed by the Basque climber Markel Mendieta. He took the time to build a suitable log out of tree trunks and began to boulder the line. The name of the boulder is the name of his son, who was born when Markel was bouldering in Ticino.

Climb as many hard boulders as you can

LACRUX met Giuliano at the Cresciano at the weekend and talked to him about his plans. Apparently he doesn't want to concentrate on climbing a super difficult boulder (8c + or 9a) yet. “I want to climb as many hard boulders as possible - no, I want to climb them all,” says Giuliano full of vigor and continues: “The areas in Ticino still offer so many 8b + and 8c boulders. It's incredible". For the time being, however, Giuliano will no longer do any more inspections in Ticino, because he will be going to Fontainebleau for several weeks to come with us Charles Albert, Jimmy Webb and other strong guys on difficult projects and hopefully to climb them.
