The Dagger 8B (+) by Alex Wurm (19) and Luis Gerhardt (18)

Alex Wurm, little brother to Jule, the last World and Europe champion, has done an amazingly fast ascent of The Dagger 8B (+) in Cresicano. "WOOOW low gravity day!!! Took me about 45 minutes. First try after figuring out the moves. 8B/+ for me." Also Luis Gerhardt (in the picture), has made a personal best by doing The Dagger, "Feels amazing to climb such a majestic line! Climbed it two times in a row because I wasn't sure the first time if I touched the tree with my pants..." It was Toni Lamprecht who made the FA in 2003 and later Dave Graham added a sit start calling it The Story of Two World's which now is one of the most repeated 8C's in the world.
