Laura Rogora has had a busy few weeks in Spain. After climbing Pal Norte (8c+/9a) at Margalef at the end of 2019, the European Lead Champion has gone on to redpoint La Bongada (9a) (also at Margalef) and onsight an 8b+.

Rogora onsighted L-mens at Montsant on the conglomerate limestone found at the crag. An onsight of the 8b+ grade is at the top end of women's climbing, with the grade of 8c yet to be onsighted. Josune Bereziartu first onsighted the grade back in 2005 and only a handful of women have matched her achievement since.

La Bongada was Rogora's fifth 9a; her first was Grandi Gesti in Sperlonga, just south of her hometown of Rome. She climbed the route quickly on her sixth redpoint.
