## Third ascent, fifth go
Laura Rogora climbed Big Twin 5.15a in Laggio Nord, in the Italian Dolomites. It was the route's third ascent, and she did it on her fifth attempt of the session.
## A brutal start crux
A boulder problem at the base of the hard section forced her to rework her beta. On the first real redpoint try she pushed through it and kept going to the top.

> I really didn't expect to pass through the first crux and climb all the way to the top!
## Ondra bolted the story first
Icio dall'Omo bolted the line years ago and nobody redpointed it. Ondra made the first ascent in May 2025, on his third day of trying, fighting up 50 metres of rock.

> I was blown away by the quality of the line, especially how fun it was to climb.
## Softened from 5.15b
Ondra first thought Big Twin might be 5.15b. Better beta changed his mind and he settled on 5.15a, then said the Laboratorio crag deserves something harder.

> But this is just beginning for this crag, it is time to bolt something harder.
## Another one the next day
A day after Big Twin she jumped on Chiave Della Volta 5.14d and sent it same day. Ondra calls it 40 metres of madness and one of the best routes in Arco.
## Six days on Bibliographie
Megos needed 60 sessions for Bibliographie 5.15c. Ghisolfi, Bailey and Garnbret all took weeks. Rogora did it in six days, which puts her sending speed in a class of its own.

> Rogora's six-day send of a 5.15c route is unprecedented.
## Key takeaway

Rogora is sending at a speed almost nobody in climbing has matched, and she has not paused since Bibliographie.
