During her spring break, 13-year-old Ashima Shiraishi flew from her home in New York City to climb in Catalunya's famous Santa Linya Cave. While she was there, she managed to climb harder than perhaps any woman ever before.

In this video, shot and edited by Parker Alec Cross (http://www.crossroadstudios.com), we see the first of her two record-setting sends: Open Your Mind Direct (9a/+).

Shortly after she completed her first "project," Ashima went on to send 9a/+ Ciudad de Dios.
