Stefano Ghisolfi has made the fourth ascent of Chris Sharma's First round, first minute, 9b, at Margalef, Catalunya, Spain.

Finally First round first minute fell!! After 3 days of rest due to rain and wetness, today, with a little bit of moisture, the belayed by the exceptional Alex [Megos] and rooting by Sara I managed to get the masterpiece freed by Chris Sharma and repeated by Adam Ondra and Alex Megos. Now first round also speaks a little Italian!

This was Stefano's 2nd 9b after his own Lapsus at Andonno in Italy, which he climbed in November 2015.

In a couple of weeks both Stefano and Alex will try a considerably harder route in Stockholm at the launch event for The Project. More on that later.

Great effort. First 9b climbed this year. Bit of a weird and cryptic comment. And what is The Project?

cheers.... Sounds interesting: The 18th of februari some of the worlds best climbers will come to Klättercentret Telefonplan and have a go at the project. Alex Megos, Magnus Midtbø, Kajsa Rosén and Jakob Schubert are coming, plus a couple more. Cross your fingers and save the date! Does this mean there's a live stream of it then ?
