A few days ago 30-year-old Mélissa Le Nevé managed to redpoint Bionic commando, a steep power endurance climb established by Christian Bindhammer at Jesuswand in Bavaria, Germany. The French climber needed not more than 9 days to redpoint what is "probably the nicest and most logical line on the wall."

After the 8c+ 50 words for Pump and Southern Smoke at Red River Gorge, USA, repeated in 2018 in the 8c+ Baa Baa Black Sheep at Céüse repeated in 2014, it would be nice to think that her first 9a is perhaps not far off...
