Asi nejtěžší cestu světa "trad", tedy po vlastním jištění, vylezl Ital Jacopo Larcher. Přelezl v italském Cadarese cestu, o níž říká, že je to nejtěžší, co kdy dal (sport i trad), a to už má na kontě sportovku La Rambla 9a+. Mohl by to být průlom tvrdší trad klasy z 8c+ do 9a.

Sám Jacopo stupeň zatím nenavrhl. Dal v cestě víc než 50 pokusů, než se mu povedla.

O přelezu informoval včera Jacopův sponzor Black Diamond:

Today BD Ambassador @jacopolarcher sent what is potentially the hardest trad climb in the world in Cadarese, Italy!! ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ "At first I didn't understand anything, it just seemed impossible, then as time went by I managed to unravel the moves. Now I know them so well that I’m hard-pressed to give the route a grade. The only thing I know is that it’s the most difficult thing I’ve ever climbed. Both in sport climbing and in trad climbing. I’ve never tried anything as hard as this before." Congrats Jacopo!! ⁣⠀ ⁣⠀ #liveclimbrepeat⁣⠀ Photos: @paolosartophoto⁣⠀ @blackdiamond_climb

Kromě dalších mu gratuloval Adam Ondra, který soudí, že není pochyb, že je to nejtěžší tradiční jednodélka na světě.

Huge congrats to @jacopolarcher for sending his long-term project in Cadarese, Italy. The gear is exlusively trad and it took Jacoppo more than 50 sessions to complete. With 9a+ under his belt (La Rambla), claiming this thing is is his hardest ever (both sport and trad), I think there is no doubt this thing is the hardest single-pitch trad route in the world! Jacoppo did not give any grade yet. Jacopo has been one of the best allround climbers for some years, possibly not really getting enough credit for his savage sends. Bravo Jacopo!

Portál 8a.nu k tomu dodává, že by vzhledem k tomu, že zatím jsou na světě asi 4 trad cesty v nejvyšším stupni 8c+, a tradiční stupnice je historicky tvrdší než sportovní, mohl by být Jacopúv dokončený projekt první tradiční cestou za 9a. Viz: 8a.nu
