Laura Rogora climbs 9a once again with Pure dreaming at Massone, Arco
Laura Rogora has finished her lockdown on fine form and, without the hectic competition schedule, has concentrated her effort around Arco in Northern Italy where she made swift work of two 8c’s. Riflessi and Terra Piatta. Located at Monte Colt, these beautifully slightly overhanging lines stand in stark contrast to the huge overhangs at Massone where the 19-year-old repeated Pure Deraming. Bolted by Alfredo Webber and freed by Adam Ondra, Rogora took a mere nine attempts to send this 9a, proving to herself that it’s time to shift down a gear and set her dreams a notch higher.
