#sportsclimbing — Public Fediverse posts

There are many great #climbers atm since the sport gets more and more popular.

One athlete who dominates the scene since years, 10x world cup winner, 2x olympic gold medalist (Paris & Toyko) just made big news:

Janja Garnbret (SLO) flashed the extremly difficult rock-climbing route "Puro Dreaming" in Arco, IT. It's graded a 9a (without kneepads and other helpers).

She's the 3rd person ever who flashed (= finishing / "sending" a route without trying before) a 9a graded route after Adam Ondra (CZ) and Alex Megos (FRAnken).

Congrats and respect - this is an extraordinary archivement no words can describe.
