Ciudad de Dios 9a by Gonzalo Larrocha
Gonzalo Larrocha has done his 15th 9a, Ciudad de Dios in Santa Linya. The picture shows a new kneebar rest which he found just before the crux.
"I spend four seasons on it, I donยดt know how many tries I did, perhaps more than one hundred. Thatยดs by far my hardest 9a. There is a sequence of five 5 moves that I only could do some days. That route is a direct start to Fabela wich I did in 2014. In Ciudad de Nios start you should make an 8c+ instead of the 8a start of Fabela.
