Eva Hammelmüller has repeated Pungitopo, the 8c+ on the Red Point Wall in Valle di Laghel above Arco bolted by Francesco Morandi and freed in 2022 by Adam Ondra. The Czech climber had described this route as pPossibly Arco's most aesthetic hard line" and the 22-year-old from Innsbruck, Austria, needed just four sessions for her ascent last Thursday.

Only one section in the middle proved considerably harder than the rest but evidently Hammelmüller had mechanized the moves well because half an hour later, while making a video of her send, she redpointed the route a second time.
