8c+ by Riccardo Scarian (45)

Riccardo Scarian has done the first repetition of Ale Zeni's La Suerte 8c+ in Zusa high up in the Dolomites. The 45 year old started to climb 1983 and has been on the cutting edge for the last 25 years actually. Please give some info of the ascent and how much you have been training lately? "The route is forty meters long. The first part is quite easy but the next twenty meters intense on a beautiful wall of twenty degrees! In the last month ... I've been in Font where I climbed ten days in a row without rest and drinking lots of beer in the evening, because it is too easy to just be an athlete :)
