After a Gold in the World Championships in Arco and a 3rd place at Briancon, Ramón Julian Puigblanque has gone on vacation. Climbing vacation.

At Céüse he made short work of Le Cadre nouvelle version, 9a, (which nowadays is the only version anyone is climbing as far as I know). Ramonet needed 3 tries, not counting the attempts he needed for the original, chipped, version.
I've no idea what's next, but wouldn't it be cool if he could make the 2nd ascent of Sharma's 3 degrees of separation?

Doesn't Three Degrees of Separation have some absolutely enormous dyno(s) on it, and isn't Ramonet about three feet tall? 'Impressive' would be the word.

The original is broken at the chipped section apparently. Arnaud Petit said he thought it would still probably be possible the original way at ~8c+ but pretty nasty. Does anyone know what "dos llensaments" means? (On Ramon's scorecard comment but the online translators don't know it.)

Looks like Catalan. 'dos llançaments' in catalan is 'two throws' ('two goes' obviously) Not sure if he's misspelled it or speaking another dialect.

'two throws' makes sense - the comment is about the crux section which I think has some big moves on it. Cheers for the knowledge!

That would be bloody impressive to repeat 3 degrees considering how short he is... A font 8A dyno that Adam Ondra couldn't do despite his height and that Sharma looks proper stretched on too! I think Ramon is strong enough to pull on the non existent holdsnin between anyway : P
