Moon Climbing reports Richard Simpson has made the 6th ascent of Action Directe, Güllich's benchmark 9a at Waldkopf, Frankenjura. "Okay everybody, here is the news you all have been waiting for. Just got a text message from Rich Simpson who is one of Moon's top sponsored climbers, and, he has just made the 1st British repeat and, I think, the 5th repeat overall of Action Directe, the infamous Wolfgang Gullich route in the German Frankenjura. Touted as the worlds 1st 9a it should be the top of any self respecting sport climbers hit list of hard routes. Rich just texted me the following: "Just did it everything was perfect. im so happy it's like a drug for the next few hours i will be gone totally out of here. it's no longer a dream. thanks". "
