Shawn Raboutou manages third ascent of „Livin’ Large“ (Fb8c) in the Rocklands in South Africa. The First Ascenter Nalle Hukkataival means in 2009: „I named it Livin‘ Large in the theme of the project name. Livin‘ Large is by far the hardest thing I’ve ever climbed and I feel confident saying that it’s a proper 8C. Before this, I believe the most time I’ve invested into a single problem is 5 days. Another interesting thought that crossed my mind is that Livin‘ Large took me more days than Jade took me tries. That being said, the crux on Jade is a very powerful yet simple move, whereas the movement on Livin‘ Large is anything but simple. Apart from the difficulty, Livin‘ Large is pretty much a perfect boulder problem in my eyes and I hope the upcoming seasons other climbers will get as psyched to try it as I was.“
