Career
He is one of a handful of climbers who have climbed the boulder grade V15 (8C). In spring 2014, Webb climbed The Understanding and Practice of the Wild, both V15, within a week of each other. In November 2014, he repeated Defying Gravity which was originally climbed by Daniel Woods a year before.
Webb has climbed the boulder the first time trying, or flashed, six V13 or harder boulder problems.
Dead Point Magazine says "it’s not a stretch to consider Jimmy the world’s best flash boulderer."
Webb is the premier athlete supported by Southern California based surf & stone apparel brand HippyTree.
