Is that one of the strongest days ever?

Just assuming that the grades everyone else has proposed for them are right, has anyone else ever done 9b+ and 9b in the same day? Or even two 9a+s or harder in the same day?

Ten years ago, Sharma climbed 9b (FA of Fight or Flight) and Chaxi 9a+ both at Oliana on the same day.

Someone has logged My Own Private Idaho up in Crafant. Would this be the first repeat ?

Second after Ned. Time for Tim to move on, he's crushed pretty much everything in North Wales now!

Sharmas effort seems more impressive I think, given the energy expenditure required for one of those oliana routes, compared to a relatively short bouldery route. Never mind the fact he already had two decent burns on other routes before!

Well maybe, but
a) we don't know how many goes Jakob had that day
b) the routes are harder (though perhaps not by a full grade)
c) fight or flight is one of the shortest hard routes at Oliana
d) his attempt on Chaxiraxi apparently ended at the last move of the boulder problem - which is at the start...

I can definitely have a lot of goes in a day on a short route at my limit, and probably only 1 go on a long route at my limit that involves getting high.

They're the same grade according to Schubert.

I think that’s pretty individual, I can definitely get three quality attempts, falling high on all attempts on 40m routes at my limit. Not much more attempts on short strength endurance things, four maybe.

I assume Ged was comparing the grade of King Capella/La Capella to Fight or Flight/Chaxi.

Yes I was, sorry for confusion.

Whatever, sharma is the best!

Turns out that Jakob also managed to climb everything hard at the la capella sector (>8c) during his 9 day trip, including a flash of jungle speed (8c+ or 9a depending on who you ask).

 If Jungle Speed is 8c+ Jacob joins a very exclusive group of six (?) climbers who have done a route of that grade without any prior practice, and if Jungle Speed is 9a Jacob joins a group of three.

? = Adam, Alex, Magnus, Patxi and Ramón (from the top of my head) + Jakob

Daniel woods has logged pure imagination as a flash on 8a.nu, reckon that's probably a mistake though as he also logged southern smoke direct as a flash and there's some footage out there of him working it.

Schubert has flashed 8c+ before in 2016 (?) en 2020.

Is the talk of money a joke or is this something like the type of contract that he has?
