Watch Moritz Welt on New Frankenjura V14

Moritz Welt, 17, has made the first ascent of Royal Flush V14 in Frankenjura, his fifth of the grade.
“The full line on the boulder starting like Mutant and going all the way up to the end of Backgammon,” Welt wrote on 8a.nu. “Wanted to do this for a long time and after getting close last weekend I came back this afternoon and crushed it first go. There are 16 hard moves in a row – a technical first part into a powerful ending – climbs just perfect but pumps like hell.”
