First 8c+ by Jose E. Agustí (38)

Jose E. Agustí, who has done 750 routes 8a to 8c, has done his first 8c+ Massa Pelis in Sant Llorenç del Munt. (c) Marc Giol - I'm climbing since I was 15, when my father introduced me into this world. I immediately recognized that this sport was my live. I started climbing routes of about 8a at 19-year-old and in 2004 I did first 8c in Gandia (Malsoñando). I always prefer on sight climbing, in this style I've climbed till 8b (Alter ego, Rodellar), and I have managed to continue doing 8a's and 8a+ in this style. Two years ago I rebolted an ancient and forgotten project and this is what I've been doing this last two summers. Working this endurance route. David Gambus did the first ascent the last Monday two days later I completed my dream, my first 8c+! Next year I wanna try harder routes ant try to reach to the 9a before my 40.
