Fuck the system, 9a by Patxi Usobiaga

And here's one more... Patxi Usobiaga, returning to Sta. Linya after presenting a deep water soloing video in the Basque Country (trailer), has made in five goes today the FA of Daniel Andrada's route Fuck the system, for which he proposes 9a. In Patxi's words: "It seemed a very difficult route to me, very physical which doesn't favours my qualities. It's been the route for which I needed more effort among these I've done the last days. It can be 9a, but let's see what the future repetitors think". You can see in Katuoinak.tv the video of Patxi in La Rambla. Pic: Irati Anda.
