Samuel Ometz manages 9a first ascent: La Mola Mola

A few days ago, the Swiss climber made the first ascent of a difficult route in the La Plamproz climbing area: La Mola Mola (9a).

Samuel Ometz is another candidate who has already made heavy inspections after the corona break. His latest coup: the first free ascent of the route La Mola Mola near Plamproz.

The route is short, but goes completely into the forearms.

The route was designed by Dave Graham Established around 10 years ago and has been waiting for a free inspection ever since. Samuel Ometz closes another long-term project with the inspection of La Mola Mola (9a). In March it was the route L'Oeuvre (9a), which he was able to score after numerous sessions.
