Newsflash 9b First Ascent for Angela Eiter
Angela Eiter has made the first ascent of a new 9b route which she has named Madame Ching. If the grade is confirmed, this would be the hardest first ascent climbed by a woman.
Angy Eiter has repeated Fragile steps, Font 8B in Rocklands, South Africa.

As a four times winner of both the Lead World Championships and overall World Cup, Angy is still best known as a competition climber, but she has also done numerous ascent of high-end routes during the last few years. And now she has climbed her first 8B boulder problem!
K3 Climbing: It was Ashima Shiraishi who told Angy Eiter that there was a little roof at the fortress crag that could maybe suit her. Well it was! If you are good on crimps you like it!
I think this was the 4th female ascent after Doro Karalus, Ashima Shiraishi and Brooke Raboutou.
