In the spring of 2017 the pair of climbers Zangerl-Larcher managed the Trad-ascent of the Gondo crack (8c) in the sector Cippo at Gondo. Black Diamond is now releasing a video of the two sympathetic full-time climbers.
At the end of the 90s, the two Italians Allesandro Manini and Maurizio Pellizzon judged the Gondo crack one. Up until the beginning of last year, nobody was able to walk freely. Even one of the wide boyz, Tom Randall gritted his teeth on the route and pulled away with no red dot. At the beginning of April 2017, the Austrian got to work Barbara Zangerl and the Italian Jacopo Larcher the first free ascent. Your suggestion: 8c. In the following film the two athletes will be introduced.
