Chris Sharma's new project and the amazing OS story

Chris Sharma has bolted a “blank” 30-meter wall in Siurana with no routes within some 40 meters of either side. All the moves have been done and after some ten sessions of trying, he has started doing some good links reports photographer Ricardo Giancola, who shared this picture from the new project and who also captured Sharma’s 8c onsight.

“It was totally unexpected. We were filming his project on El Pati but the wind was so strong that we went to that route to be able to do something out of the wind and that's why I didn't have my rope on that one, ha ha :)

It was crazy. He started the onsight and in the middle of the route, he did not know which bolt line to follow and had to yell to the guy below with the topo. - Should I go left or right?

The guy opens the topo, finds the correct side and reads info about the route. Then Chris continued the route like in cruise control! At one point he had to rest for like two minutes as his fingers were freezing due to the strong wind. It was amazing to see and so inspiring.”
