<p>Alex Megos is a German sport climber known for his cutting-edge first ascents, historic onsights, and astonishingly rapid repeats of some of the world’s hardest routes. Hailing from the Frankenjura, he has climbed virtually every hard route in the area. Unsurprisingly, he is exceptionally strong on pockets, though he is also famous for having notoriously poor skin.</p> <p>Alex was the first person in the world to onsight 9a with his ascent of <a href="/climb/98/estado-crítico" rel="noopener noreferrer">Estado Crítico</a> in <a href="/crag/1728/siurana---valley" rel="noopener noreferrer">Siurana</a>.
