Well, yesterday we really wanted to make a rest day, but it was impossible, we were too motivaded!
Also the suspense if Adam will climb his new route on his ultimade day, was too big! So we moved at four in the afternoon to the cliff and we just arrived on time. Adam did the new start of his 9a+, Shaxi Raxi, what meens that he did an 8B+ boudlerproblem before the 9a+. He supposed a hard 9b, not so bad!
Good vibes on the cliff, but my fingers were hurting from the sharp pockets in the steep route of ‘El gran blau’. But I was really motivaded to try ‘full-equip’, the 8c Cédric did on-sight yesterday.
After a wourk out I found the route really easy and so I was full of confidence in me and positive energy to climb this route. And so it was, I climbed it on my second go, it was great!;-)
Well, this route was never 8c, in my opinion it was comparable to an 8b in Céuse or in Voralpsee….so I’m really happy about my big fight, but I would never say that I did an 8c…
