21 Jun Manolo onsight on After Eight

 
Maurizio Zanolla – better known as Manolo – does not need an introduction. After Eighti, his last performance, at first sight is not striking, except that the pitch in question is characterized by a great technical difficulty, which rejected  a number of famous "suitors" able to climb grade 9 as the French Fred Rouhling.
This of Manolo should be the forth ascent and the first onsight.
After Eight is located in Castello di Jerzu crag (Ogliastra – Sardinia), and was first redpointed by Cecilia Marchi in 2003, and then by Francesca Chenal and later by Matteo Gambaro.
