Goldrake 9a+ by Stefano Ghisolfi

Stefano Ghisolfi, who did a 9b FA last year as well as being #9 in the Led World Cup has done Goldrake 9a+ in Cornalba. "Had some problem with the top slab, but did it in 4 days!

But my passion for rock is too strong that I need to climb outside once a week at least.
