An eternal figure of rock climbing

To my mind, Chris Sharma is now a legend of rock climbing because of his great talent hand his state of mind.

He won a lot of climbing competitions and realized most of hard free climbing's ways in the wolrd; therefore, he will remains in memories.

The aim of climbing is to reach the top, going past difficulties. Chris Sharma has already climbed the hardest routes; so, what can he do now? What is next?

Maybe he will climb cordless, like some climbers that want to be more close to the nature, taking risks and enjoying the feeling that your life depend on your moves...

Maybe he will find new routes, following his work on difficult handholds...

Who knows?

Nobody can know the future about Chris Sharma, but for me, he's still the best but not for a long time: a young French guy, Thomas Anquetil, is following the lead of Chris , realizing 8B+ routes at the age of 14 like Chris did when he was already 15....
I hope that they will meet each other to practise together to push the envelope...
