Stefano Folgarait does Omen Nomen (9a)

Stefano Folgarait, with two 9a’s and 130 FA’s under his belt, has repeated Stefano Ghisolfi’s Omen Nomen (9a) in Arco.

Can you tell us more about the ascent?
I started trying the route around mid-November and in a short time I fell several times on the last hard block and felt pretty close... then in January I was forced to stop for 20 days due to an injury. I resumed trying the route in February and then on March 3rd, after finding an easier method for the final block, I finally managed to climb it.

How big is the bolting potential around Arco?
I've bolted around 130 routes in the Terragnolo valley and there's probably potential for another 50-60 routes, most of them in unpublished crags.
