Watch Stefano Ghisolfi send Action Directe in Frankenjura
Last November Stefano Ghisolfi repeated Action Directe, the legendary sports climb freed by Wolfgang Güllich at Waldkopf in Germany's Frankenjura in 1991. The 30-year-old Italian needed 6 days for his ascent, and after the redpoint he explained "It certainly is something special, not only from a historical point of view but also because of its beauty, located on this isolated boulder deep in the forest." Here's the video of his rotpunkt.
