fa. IL SANTUARIO 8B
Edo and I found this line while poking around last year. It was caked in stale chalk and tickmarks, yet nobody seems to know anything about it. It seems too good to have flown under the radar so I believe this was the first time it was climbed. Anyone have info?
Anyway, whether it’s the 1st or 100th ascent this experience was a gem. 👊 to my Weekend Warrior brothers.
Climbing is a privilege ☮️

Salam my Name is Read Macadam I lived in Muscat from 2008-2017 and we climbed a lot up here in Hadash and bolted some really great roots and had good with the excellent community,
Next plan were back to Italy and back to the grind back to work back to normal life, but it was really pleasure to drop back in to hadash and see the old Spartan and hang out with these guys.

A tricky quartz line from Atlantide Sector on a beauty day in Ceresole Reale with @e.bocchiovega & @rusticaresole 🤙
Not sure if it’s been climbed before. We dubbed it Terminator and it goes around 7C.

💎 Il King Degli Almost 8B 💎
So pleased for this one! Surreal, topping out at 11pm after a long day at my desk in back-to-back client meetings.
“One more try before we go. I’m wrecked, but I learned a thing, so let’s see.”
My power screams cut the cold silence. Involuntary outbursts, a mechanism evolved to clear the mind, cast out doubt, cancel gravity. The shouts of support from brother @emanuelegex echo behind.
When I started climbing in the 90s this was the top level, something we read about in magazines and old Prana ads. Figurati we could imagine to do these things - or even know where to look for them beyond the dusty gym!
My kid-self is dang proud. He’d never have dared imagine that one day he’d be a 40-something weekend warrior with a career, and then on top have the audacity to climb these king lines of childhood fantasy.
I still remember the day @e.bocchiovega opened Il King Degli Almost, and I am so psyched to follow the path.
No specific training for ages so must be the good vibes and shared motivation powering it all. Weekend warriors 👊 and ❤️ @vinci_melina supporting my madness

A little diamond cleaned and climbed in Pianchette, Valle Orco. Located on the road 300m up from the parking.
Prism ~ 7C?

Friday night lights at Picchia Pennacchio 8A+ with guru @emanuelegex 👌.
Solid line. I relished the process on this one, always looked forward to the hang out, and in the end it gifted us a hefty dose of training value. Nice to feel that progress and flow at 42. Double send this weekend and we are on to the next!
Full credit to @rifugiolefontiminerali for the panini power!
