So before I had my 3 or 4 year hiatus from the blocs V14/8B+ was the benchmark for hard bouldering... few people were that strong and the problems that hard were few and far between... nowadays it seems like every man and his dog can pull down that hard and a new generation of insanely strong kids (alongside some of the strong old guard) are upping the ante...
To show what is considered really 'hard' these days here is a vid of American strong kid Daniel Woods doing the first ascent of 'Jade' V15/8C in RMNP in Colorado, USA (Courtesy of Big Up Productions) enjoy :-)
