Sharma..... new 9b

© Pete O'Donovan
Björn Pohl reports at 8a.nu.

"It seems Chris Sharma has managed to make the FA of Golpe de estado in the El Pati-sector of Siurana. The route is a direct version of Estado critico and is made up of one 9a part, directly followed by an 8c+ part, without any rest. Chris was a bit hesitant about the grade, but in the end he decided it was most probably 9b.

If there are any mistakes, it's because my Spanish is crap. "

Now that really is news - El Pati is an awesomely impressive bit of rock, and with easy access in the centre of one of world's major climbing areas it's there for anyone else to pit themselves against. Sharma seems to have been at the very top of world climbing for years now!
