Tech in Bouldering Incident

June 12, 2024

The Skibbutz après-ski team were surprised to find their top developer involved in a bouldering incident in The Netherlands this week.

A regular bouderer, Mach8, only known by his password, was confronted by the undercarriage of a Ukrainian guest climber at a difficult moment in a climb. Witnesses described the fall of the Ukrainian climber as ‘funny’ and ‘sickening’, but all pointed to Mach8 has having caused the fall.

The case will be heard privately at the Dimension Eleven Climbing Center with an independent arbitrator over the coming days. Mach8 claims he was struck first by an unidentified part of the Ukrainian’s body, and the reason he bears no mark is because the particular body part involved is boneless.
