First 9a by Martin Mobråten

Martin Mobraten has in only eight attempts over three days done his first 9a, Jungle Speed in Siurana. Surprisingly quick but it is very bouldery. The norwegian just came from a successful trip to Albarracin where he thinks in general the grades are one grade to soft. In august he quitted his job and now he is on a one year road trip and the next stop is USA.
