We present high quality polarimetric observations with the Effelsberg radio telescope of the Crab pulsar at 8.35 GHz using a new sensitive receiver with a very large bandwidth. We present our observations and discuss them in the context of the conclusions reached by Moffett & Hankins (1999) about the geometry and the origin of the various pulse components.
