Justin Hawkins: the first South African to redpoint 8c --> Streetfighter

Our South African friend Justin Lawson told us that the 8c barrier has fallen even for a South African!

ph: Scott Miller
On the 20th of October Justin Hawkins redpointed Streetfighter (a.k.a Two to Win) at Oudtshoorn.

Justin is the first South African to climb 8c grade!

The route which was originally a long standing project at Oudtshoorn (South Africa's only Limestone area) was bolted in 1997.

The route was listed as an open project and was first redpointed by Grant Campbell from Canada in 2005.
