9b sit-start by Magnus Midtbö

Magnus Midtbo has done the sit-start to Ali Hulk extension, 9b in the Ali baba cave in Rodellar which Dani Andrada put up in 2007 and graded, "9a+ and 8b+ resistence and hard 8c+ and hard 8c+". In practice it is about 25 metres roof climbing and actually Dani has come close on a 9b+ sit-start link-up extension. magnusmidtboe.com says, "I guess the progress relates to time. I have never before been on à monter climbing trip and it is very relaxing to hang out with Sasha."
