Sasha DiGiulian, first woman to climb "Pure Imagination"
Jinx says...>> ^kevingrr:
No one is insane enough to try to free solo that - yet - maybe never.
Even for the world's strongest climbers 5.14d is going to involve moves that they have a low percentage chance of making. The exception being Adam Ondra who this year on-sited (climbed first time, no beta) several 14c's.
Still I can't see even someone at his level attempting a free solo like this anytime soon.
To put it in perspective Alex Honnold who is getting ALOT of press for free soloing typically is climbing very far below his max. That is - he solo's 5.12 routes but is a 5.14+ climber.

Care to explain the rankings?
Higher is hard presumably, but what do the letters/numbers after the decimal mean?

Solo Free- Climb of El Capitan in Yosemite.
SpeveONTB: You are thinking of free solo climbing . . that's when you climb without any protection whatsoever. There are quite a few segments where you see him clipping into bolts, using bolt ladders and placing traditional protection.
