The steeper the rock, the more difficult would be the ascent. While climbing skyscraping rocks seems complicated, the rock climbers like Stefan Ghisofli make it seem effortless. Whether it is 9b Lapsus in Italy or the Italian Excalibur, Ghisofli has a knack for trouncing the giant colossus with his extraordinary flair for ascending the rocks. Likewise, the 29-year-old inscribed his name in history as he ascended on the 5th hardest route situated in France, initially graded as 9c by Alex Megos.

Exploring convoluted routes and making it to the top of pinnacles is what the Italian climber does best.  Let’s take a look at what drives the 29-year-old Italian to make the incredible feat seem like a piece of cake.

Stefano Ghisofli’s incredible feat of Bibliographie

In August 2021, Ghisofli made it to the headlines after making the first repeat of Bibliographie in the Ceuse mountains of France. Nevertheless, after completing the feat, the Italian climber decided to grade the cliff as 9b+ for the complexities it poses to its pursuers. 

In an interview with the Climbers Crag, the 29-year-old stated, “I usually try something out of my limit knowing hard it is, how hard it could be”. The climber further added, “it’s something more about me against myself”.

Not just that, the Italian rock climber even penned his name in the hall of fame by repeating the Bibliographie. However, Ceuse cliff isn’t the only one that made the climber the center of the spotlight. His incredible feat at Perfecto Mundo also caused a stir in the climbing fraternity.

Ghisofli made a historic triumph after completing the Perfecto Mundo

Perfect Mundo is recognized as one of the hardest and most tricky ascents in the world. With 35 meters in distance and 45 degrees overhang on the main section, Perfecto Mundo is one complicated route. However, in 2008, Chris Sharma cracked the code and made an incredible feat, and defeated the complex route. Almost a decade later, the German climber, Alex Megos repeated the history and completed the 9b+ Perfect Mundo. Then came the Italian climber, Stefano Ghisofli. In 2018, the 29-year-old became the fourth climber in history to complete the redpoint route after Adam Ondra.

Clearly, Ghisofli loves to test his limits and conquer some great cliffs. Now, the Italian is rooting for his next ascent as he anchored his focus on climbing the 9c. What do you think about Stefano Ghisofli’s off-the-charts exuberance? Tell us in the comment section below.
