Watch as Megos meticulously sorts through the technical beta linking shallow holds and pockets
Alexander Megos flashed Intermezzo XY gelöst 5.14d at Plombergstein near Salzburg, Austria, a few days ago. It was the first pure 5.14d he’d ever flashed. Watch the flash in a video published on Sept. 28. In September 2020, he flashed Underground in Arco and suggested a grade of 5.14c/d or even 5.14c, a drop from the existing 5.14d.
Megos was the third climber to send 5.15c with his route Perfecto Mundo in Spain, and again with his climb Bibliographie in France. He also made the first ascent of Fight Club 5.15b in Canada, and the third ascent of First Round First Minute 5.15b.
Over a number of visits to Canada, Megos flashed The Path 5.14R, onsighted The Shining 5.13+ 15 pitches on Mount Louis and made the fourth ascent, in a day, of Dreamcatcher 5.14d in Squamish. In Ontario, he made the first ascents of two V12s at the Niagara Glen.
