Andrea Chelleris, 15, does Estado Critico (9a)

Andrea Chelleris, with eight 9a’s and harder under his belt, has done Estado critico (9a) in Siurana and he got the send on video. In the ranking game the 15-year-old is #12 but when it comes to onsight he is #3.

Can you tell us more about the ascent?
Already on the 3rd try I fell on the last hard move but the next days there was a lot of sun and on the first crux when the light is too bright it’s not so easy to see and stick a hold after the jump. On my send try I was very lucky to have some clouds so I better could see the hold.
