Era Vella 9a by Ruben Firnenburg (16)

Ruben Firnenburg has done Sharma's high class Era Vella 9a in Margalef which is the most repeated 9a in the world during the last years. The 16 year old did his first 8c+ when he was 14 years old and last year he won the Euro Youth Cup. "Yeah, first 9a!!! Feeling very good now. Was working hard for it since winter 2012 and broke my hand taking a big fall in it. I finally did this impressive overhang and I'm really motivated for more hard stuff now! A muerte ;-)
