She's on fire
Ciudad de Dios, 9a/+, by Ashima
My impression is that this is a "slash grade", where it's widely accepted as between the grades; it was cited as "9a/+" when Magnus Midtbø and Jakob Schubert did it.
I believe Josune Bereziartu's still the only other female person to have climbed 9a/+, so this is pretty monumental in itself, and confirms that she's climbing at an extraordinary level (even if the 9a+ on Open your mind direct doesn't stick).
