The Dagger 8B (+) by Alex Wurm (19) and Luis Gerhardt (18)
Alex Wurm, little brother to Jule, the last World and Europe champion, has done an amazingly fast ascent of The Dagger 8B (+) in Cresicano. "WOOOW low gravity day!!! Took me about 45 minutes. First try after figuring out the moves. 8B/+ for me." Also Luis Gerhardt (in the picture), has made a personal best by doing The Dagger, "Feels amazing to climb such a majestic line! Climbed it two times in a row because I wasn't sure the first time if I touched the tree with my pants..." It was Toni Lamprecht who made the FA in 2003 and later Dave Graham added a sit start calling it The Story of Two World's which now is one of the most repeated 8C's in the world.

Silvio Reffo has done his tenth 9a or harder and reports on Facebook with a great picture by Luka Fonda. "Another great weekend of climbing in Misja Pec, finally I managed to climb Sansjki par extension 9a. I had already tried the route last year but yesterday I crushed it.

Laura Rogora has had an amazing climbing day at Sperlonga having done two 8b+'s, Piccoli gesti and Viaggio=infinito Sperlonga. In total, the #2 in the 8a ranking game, has done six routes 8b+ or harder. Her first 8c she did 13 months ago. Last year, the 14-year-old won the Italian Championship beating Lenny Lavarda who was among Top-23 in all the six WCs.
