Estato Critico 9a by Tomรกs Ravanal

Tomรกs Ravanel has done Estato Critico in Siurana which makes him the first Chilean to do 9a. He started climbing 12 years ago when he was 21. After the last attempt the last year, falling in very last movement, Tomรกs injured his right big toe, which prevented him from finishing the process. "I am very happy to have done this route, because for me this means finishing a process and being able to release the energy that led me to injure my toe in that way, i hope end this process would led me to heal once for all". Interesting is that after just 18 months of climbing he did his first 8a+ and his first 8c, he did after three years of climbing. The Chilean is based in Spain, living in a van where he intends to travel in Europe, traversing the best climbing sectors and training for his next projects.

โ€I stopped focusing on competition bouldering after last yearโ€™s World Cup in Prague, partly because I can already feel it on my body, especially in my shoulders. The modern competition style, with a lot of jumping from one hold to another, is very demanding for the shoulders. Outdoor bouldering isโ€ฆ
