Uncut: Giuliano Cameroni - Legacy (9a/V14) FA

Uncut: Giuliano Cameroni - Legacy (9a/V14) FA drops you into Rocklands, South Africa, for a tight, no-frills look at Cameroni’s first ascent of Legacy—an ultra-bouldery sport line graded 9a/V14. In just over two minutes, it traces the route’s story from discovery to obsession: found by Dave Graham, bolted with Fred Nicole in mind, and tried across five seasons before the door finally opened for someone new to take a shot. What makes this worth watching is the distilled intensity: real attempts, real tension, and the sharp edges of a climb that sits at the crossroads of bouldering power and route endurance. It’s a quick hit of modern hard climbing—equal parts history and execution—showing how patience, precision, and a few decisive days can turn a long-held project into a landmark ascent.
