9a FA by Kleman Becan - Water world

Kleman Becan has written a nice blog about his FA of Water World 9a in Osp. Klemen bolted it almost two years ago and at first he could only do two of the first 30 moves which is followed by a 30 m 8b. Than the rain come creating a small lake under so he had to go by boat or tyrolean traverse to the route. The Slovenian has been a successful competition climber since 1996 having won one Lead World Cup and been #2 in two Boulder WC's.
