After the funny experience in Milan during the PsicoComp Master Series, the first Italian deep water competition done in September, Silvio Reffo went to USA, exactly in Red River Gorge, for a one month long visit in this mecca of sport climbing of States. Unfortunately, Silvio and his friends found very crazy hot temperature and great humidity, not the best conditions to climb, but using a rare day of mite temperature, did the ascent of Pure Imagination, must of RRG.
\n\u201cDuring the three weeks before, we found only two days with not too hot, The first one I tried Pure Imagination and I had very good sensations. After some days, we decide to try and went at the bottom of the route very early. After a quickly worming up, I started to climb the route and reached the top, very happy! This is of course a five stars route for me! The time for us is not a lot here! Some project will remain here undone but it\u2019s a good think to return!\u201d
\nPure was opened by Jonathan Siegrist and done also by Sasha DiGliulian in 2011 when it was graded 9a. Some other climbers like Enzo Oddo, Cedric Lachat or Jorg Verhoeven did not modified the grade after their ascents. Only Adam Ondra, in 2012 and after an on sight of this, reduced the difficult to 8c+.
