Alex Megos Goes on 5.14+ Swiss Sending Spree
Alex Megos has had a fantastic year at crags around the world. He recently wrapped up a week-long trip where he ticked some of the classic hard routes in Switzerland.
The climbers’ site 8a.nu broke down the first half of his trip as such: day one he sent Speed 5.14c on his second go, day two he climbed Ravage 5.14b, Enfant de Boheme 5.14b and L’appel de la foret 5.14b on second goes and day three he climbed Im Reich des Shogun 5.14d on his second go.
For the second half of his week, Megos climbed Les temps difficiles 5.14c, Rammstein 5.14b and two other 5.14s on his fifth day, day six he got Coup de Grace 5.14d on his second go and on day seven he ticked Deus Irae 5.14c on his second go.
The following day, he climbed Sid Lives 5.14d and Bucking Bronco 5.14c. Earlier this year he made the first ascent of Clash of the Titans 5.15a at Gotterwandl in Tirol, Austria, and made the first ascent of Chile’s first 5.14d he called Pasito a Pasito.
