Hugo Parmentier ticks Joe-Cita (9a)

Hugo Parmentier, with 14 routes 9a to 9b under his belt, has done Joe-cita (9a) in Oliana. โ€70 billion metres and the rests that go with it. Super happy. Swartzy might not have done it but it requires a hell of a fitness anyway. Tess always all in my good and my less good times. โค๏ธ (c) Williclimb

Can you tell us more about the ascent?
Iโ€™m proud to be able to send such huge and endurancy route! It is sooo long. Basically you climb a 5 meter section and take a real rest all the way up the 45m. By the way I used kneepads but I donโ€™t know if Adam and the firsts repetetors used them. I believe it is 9a anyway. This route makes a lot of sense eventhough itโ€™s a link up. You take the hard bit of Joe Blau and the best section of Morenita. The direct versions and this link were really good routes to try after tries in Papichulo or now in Joe Mama. Psyched !
