Lโ€™รฉtrange ivresse des lenteurs 9a+ by Alex Megos

Alex Megos reports on Insta that he has done the first repeat of Adam Ondra's Lโ€™รฉtrange ivresse des lenteurs in Cรฉรผse. He did it in 5 or 6 tries over three days when he also was filming his recent 9c. "It felt hard for the grade to me so I went and tried โ€œBiographieโ€ a day later to compare and I personally think โ€œLโ€™รฉtrange Ivresseโ€ felt more like 9a+/b to me."

In total, the German has now done some 80 routes 9a to 9c. Last year, the 27-year-old qualified to the Olympics and he also got the silver in the Lead World Championship.

โ€I stopped focusing on competition bouldering after last yearโ€™s World Cup in Prague, partly because I can already feel it on my body, especially in my shoulders.
