8c MP by Edu Marin

Edu Marin has made the FA of the five-pitch-long Tarragó Plus 8c located in Montserrat, which was the first playground crag for both Edu and his father, Novato, who belayed him. Tarragó was first freed by the Pou brothers in 2013 as an 8b+ and first Edu repeated the original line but two days later he opted for combining the two crux pitches and creating a 55 meter 8c with lots of ropedrag. "After freeing Tarragó, I thought that it would be best to join pitch 4 (8a) and pitch 5 (8b+), as the anchor was situated in the middle of a very difficult sequence. It was logical to me to rest after, not during that crux." "It is one of the most amazing routes I have ever climbed, aesthetically perfect, very aerial and exposed."
