The Austrian prodigy Bernd Zangerl uses ninja style to make the first repeat of Entlinge, one of Nicole’s hardest blocs. The problem, a likely V15/16, is at Murg, a small sandstone area near Sankt Gallen. “We expected a soaking-wet boulder, but it was so cold that it was dry and icy,” recalls Moix. “Good ‘cause I crossed the entire (little) country for this shot!” Photo by Fred Moix / fredmoix.com

Lamprecht on his 2003 FA (he added a V15 sit in 2005) The Dagger, Cresciano, Ticino. This problem, which shares its finish with Dave Graham’s The Story of Two Worlds, claimed Lamprecht’s sacrum the day of the shoot (he butt-planted onto a root). Photo by Fred Moix / fredmoix.com

Ludovic Terrettaz on Kashmir, La Tailla, a small but scenic area. This river-polished problem features a jump move a “bit high” off the deck, says Moix, though the ground level changes constantly due to the river, which sometimes swallows the landing. “You can easily get wet,” Moix jokes. As erosion continues, “Soon, Kashmir will be a not-so-deep-water solo!” he says. Photo by Fred Moix / fredmoix.com
