Watch Stefano Ghisolfi Send Queen Line 5.15b

Italian climber Stefano Ghisolfi recently repeated Adam Ondra’s The Queen Line 5.15b in Arco for his sixth send of the grade.

Ghisolfi reported, “Totally unexpectedly, I did the second ascent of the hardest route in Italy and very first 9b [5.15b] of Arco, The Queen Line, climbed for the first time by Ondra and bolted by Mauro Mabboni.”

Today, totally unexpectedly, I did the second ascent of the hardest route in Italy and very first 9b of Arco, The Queen Line, climbed for the first time by @adam.ondra and bolted by Mauro Mabboni. I was very close to falling in every part of the route, even when the hardest section was over, and I had to give my 100% to complete the climb. The route is slightly harder then the other 9b's I climbed, so it's the second hardest route for me just after Perfecto Mundo. Thanks to @sara_grip for the pic and Mauro for bolting this masterpiece and for the video (that is coming soon!). @gardatrentino • • • @thenorthface @lasportivagram @camp1889 @epictv @hrtholds @misuraweb #neverstopexploring @fiammeoromoena #fiammeoromoena • #climb #climbing #steghisati #rockclimbing #klettern #escalade #bouldering #climbing_pictures_of_instagram
