Last Man (8c+) climbed by both a 15 and a 40 year old

Pietro Biagini (15) has done his first 8c+, Last Man in Albenga which was put up last week by Gambaro Matteo who is 25 years older than young Biagini. Pietro has been Top-8 in both Lead and Boulder Euro Youth Cups. Matteo did his first 8c the year before Pietro was born and even so, the last 12 months, he has done ten routes graded 8c and harder, which is a new personal record.
