The Italian has recorded 14 routes 8c and harder the last year which stands for 30 % of the total registered in the Frankenjura 8a data base. "Frankenjura is the place where I feel at home and I have been there many times. I feel good there and the style of climbing suits me very well. You love it or you hate it... and the hard routes are kind of specifics with bouldery sequences on bad crimps and pockets." Full report and and more pics by Thomas Horstner in his blog
