Deltaplane Man direct 8c+ by Martina Demmel

Martina Demmel reports on Insta that she has done Deltaplane man direct (8c+) in Entraygues. The 20-year-old started climbing in 2017 and already in 2019, she onsighted her first, out of six, 8b's. Last year she did her first 9a and onsighted her second 8b+ and she was actually #1, ahead of all males, in the 8a onsight ranking game. Unfortunately, the year ended with a broken foot after a massive fall in Oliana. Since 2020, she has done most World Cups and her best result is #15. (c) Fabian Herentrey

How is your broken foot and how do you combine outdoors and competitions?
Thanks for asking, my foot is all good again since March, so I was definitely lucky that I could climb without any limitations after three months already😁! Overall, my main focus shifted to preparing well for the lead comps the upcoming years especially because I'm gonna start an education with a special program for national team members of all sports. It's perfect to combine training and learning a job at the same time + to have a safe place where to work later😊 therefore, way less rock climbing in the next years but I'm still trying to fit in 1-2 days on the weekends🌞! But first, the last Lead WC's of the season are coming.
