Bernhard beats the snow and a steep roof to claim the FA of a new V15 in Austria.

Bernhard Schwaiger has done it again. He bagged a ridiculously crimpy FA on yet another blank looking roof. Bernhard continues to defy reason and put up hard FA’s that require intense core strength and the ability to crimp-down on almost non-visible holds while enduring the worst weather of the season. This is not the first time he has done this. Bernhard’s commitment to nabbing the FA of a hard line continues to know no bounds.

After Bernhard cleaned the line and weighted all the moves a couple weeks back snow began to cover the area in a white fog.  For many this would mean that this problem would have to wait until next season, but not for Bernhard. Bern trekked through knee-deep snow for an hour with his girl friend in tow and managed to make the send.   He named the problem Whirlwind, which seems to be appropriate after the conditions he faced, and has suggested the grade of V15.
