9a FA by Hugo Meignan (18)

Hugo Meignan has done first ascent of Madame Crochรฉ in Rodellar, a line of 40 meters, equipped by Carlos Logrono more than a decade ago just in between the classic's Geminis 8b+ and Alter Ego 8b. Hugo suggests 9a as he considers it harder than Black Pearl, 8c + which he had done few days earlier in 4 trials. This is the third 9a for Hugo during the last month. The 18 year old is now #7 in the world ranking game after a very strong progress the last year.
