A hugely solo impressive ascent of a long, intimidating line just 3 years after the first ascent.

[Interviewer:] Which routes have you climbed?

I think the best climb was the Moderne Zeiten on Marmolada in 1985. It was considered a very, very difficult route back then, and I managed to climb it in the best possible way. Without even carrying a single cord, a carabiner, or anything, I was very fast and confident, and so it was the best climb of my life, I can honestly say. It was like pure climbing. When you're mentally perfect, weightless, without a rope, without anything, light, perfectly free, but confident, that's the pinnacle of climbing. [1, via google translate]
