25 9th February 2026 18:24:17 UTC apurdy ascent Nalle Hukkataival's ascent of Gioia notes
Before
On the grade: "Gioia is definitely one of the most difficult boulders in the world. It’s certainly harder than most 8C’s out there. The real question is, is it a full grade harder? If we decide to consider it 8C+, then there are also a couple other contenders for 8C+ in my opinion. What makes Gioia even more challenging is the Mediterranean climate and skin being a limiting factor on the small sharp holds. One moment it can be grippy and the wind will change direction blowing from the sea, making the small crux hold almost un-grabbable. It hasn’t been easy to find a window of good conditions and that has made it that much harder mentally." ### References [1] [https://www.instagram.com/p/kzaHzkSEg9/](https://www.instagram.com/p/kzaHzkSEg9/) [2] [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fezk14WH3jI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fezk14WH3jI) [3] [https://www.instagram.com/p/kuaw9WSEtB/](https://www.instagram.com/p/kuaw9WSEtB/) [4] [https://nallehukkataival.tumblr.com/post/77896523061/gioia](https://nallehukkataival.tumblr.com/post/77896523061/gioia)

On the grade: "Gioia is definitely one of the most difficult boulders in the world. It’s certainly harder than most 8C’s out there. The real question is, is it a full grade harder? If we decide to consider it 8C+, then there are also a couple other contenders for 8C+ in my opinion. What makes Gioia even more challenging is the Mediterranean climate and skin being a limiting factor on the small sharp holds. One moment it can be grippy and the wind will change direction blowing from the sea, making the small crux hold almost un-grabbable. It hasn’t been easy to find a window of good conditions and that has made it that much harder mentally." ### References [1] [https://www.instagram.com/p/kzaHzkSEg9/](https://www.instagram.com/p/kzaHzkSEg9/) [2] [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fezk14WH3jI](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fezk14WH3jI) [3] [https://www.instagram.com/p/kuaw9WSEtB/](https://www.instagram.com/p/kuaw9WSEtB/) [4] [https://nallehukkataival.tumblr.com/post/77896523061/gioia](https://nallehukkataival.tumblr.com/post/77896523061/gioia)

Gioia has a slightly complicated history due to the fragile nature of the rock and the required reinforcements. After a couple of repeats from [Adam Ondra](/climber/467/adam-ondra) and [Nalle Hukkataival](/climber/602/nalle-hukkataival), [Daniel Woods](/climber/516/daniel-woods) and [Dave Graham](/climber/503/dave-graham) came to try the problem and discovered some new beta using a foothold that appeared after some rock broke. Christian then filled the new hold in to bring the problem back to it's original state. Speaking on facebook, Christian said: > After Daniel Woods and Dave Graham's attempts at sending Gioia, today I fixed the new foothold which resulted from the accidental breaking off of a piece of rock in a section of the boulder that had never been used before - section 2 of Gioia. > Now the line is back to its original state, exactly as it was when I first climbed it and when Adam Ondra and Nalle Hukkataival did their repetitions. > The original footholds are always the same; the new one was frail and would have easily broken again. I never use purpose made glue to fix these kind of issues, it's not a practice I like. > However, due to its acknowledged importance, Gioia deserved to be restored to its original line so that it could be again equal to every climber who has tried it in the past and will try it in the future. [1] After this Woods and Graham lost interest in trying the problem. ### References [1] [https://www.reddit.com/r/climbing/comments/2yu9kn/after_a_foot_hold_on_gioia_broke_during_attempts/](https://www.reddit.com/r/climbing/comments/2yu9kn/after_a_foot_hold_on_gioia_broke_during_attempts/)

Gioia was initially put up at 8C by Christiano Core, however, Adam Ondra suggested an upgrade to 8C+ when he did the second ascent of the boulder. If confirmed this upgrade would make Gioia a contender for the first 8C+ in the world, however, no future ascensionists have corroborated the 8C+ grade.
